My Approach – More than 20 Years of Experience

When I graduated from Medical School in Mexico and began practicing as a physician, I realized my patients needed more than medical treatment — they needed someone to listen to their emotional needs. After more than 24 years, I’ve learned that what we all truly seek is genuine connection.

Today, as a bilingual counselor in Austin, Texas, my passion is to help people from ALL races and ethnicities, and the Latino/Hispanic community.

I am a:

  • Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (Texas)

  • Certified Group Psychotherapist (American Group Psychotherapy Association)

I offer a confidential, judgment-free space — especially for those who have been historically marginalized.
