With over 13 years of experience working with diverse communities, including children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families, I've come to understand that each individual has the power to make decisions that shape their lives. My goal is to support personal growth and maturity by highlighting the tools you already possess to navigate life's challenges.
Together, through a collaborative approach, we can identify and address cognitive, mental, and emotional issues, including personal growth, adjustment to disability, and other psychosocial and environmental factors.
I believe that understanding brings balance to life. My aim is to empower you to handle life situations, reduce stress, experience growth, change behavior, and make well-informed decisions. Self-awareness fosters self-understanding, which ultimately leads to self-confidence. My role is to help you discover the positive aspects of yourself. Taking the first step toward therapy requires courage, and I commend you for embarking on this journey.

I love her, I think she’s amazing, her techniques she’s using and her style and way of therapy is so different and cool, she really makes me feel heard and I feel so comfortable telling her anything. 10/10

She is great! I have been going through so much the past year, and she has been instrumental in realizing my own power and my own limits, and being able to build my life with the tools she’s given me has been nothing short of exhilirating and validating. To think I could’ve done it myself all these years seemed impossible but she has such a way of breaking it down step by step, rather than facing a long grueling process of self work all at once. Her approach may be considered informal to some but for me, it helped me to open up and be vulnerable with her.

I really felt seen and understood by Leticia early on from our first session. She is very perceptive and I appreciate the perspective and new ideas she brought to me and my situation. I am grateful for the ease i felt with her as my therapist.
