About
As someone who has walked alongside individuals, couples, and families through trauma, loss, and life transitions, I bring an empathetic and strengths-based approach that honors each person's unique story.
I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker with 4 years of experience supporting children, teens, adults, older adults, couples, and families through trauma, loss, and life transitions. My goal is to help clients strengthen resilience, restore connection, and achieve emotional well-being in a safe, compassionate space. Together, we'll identify strengths, build coping tools, and create positive change through collaboration and self-awareness.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Walden University. My approach is trauma-informed, empathic, and strengths-based. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and family systems techniques to support healing.
In our work together, you can expect warmth, authenticity, and respect. Whether you're navigating relationships, grief, or personal challenges, I'll walk alongside you to foster healing, clarity, and confidence. You deserve a space to feel heard, supported, and empowered toward lasting growth.

Hi, I'm a therapist with a Master of Social Work who believes meaningful change happens through authentic connection. As a Hispanic therapist, I value the role culture, family, and lived experiences play in healing. My own experiences with loss and adversity have shaped the compassion I bring to my work.

Having navigated my own experiences with anxiety and life challenges, I bring real-world understanding, warmth, and humor into therapy to create a comfortable, authentic space where clients feel supported and less alone as they work through life’s hard moments.

With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.
Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.
There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.
Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.
Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
We get it. Schedules fill up and “maybe tomorrow” becomes “maybe next week.” But the decision to care for your mental and emotional health is one of the most important decisions of your life. It can be the difference between living with anxiety, depression, or self-esteem issues and engaging thoughtfully with your world and the people in it.
You can’t always prevent bad things from happening. But, with therapy, you can reexamine the way you respond. You can empower yourself to make careful decisions that positively influence your life. To get started with virtual counseling, call us at Thriveworks in Thousand Oaks, CA. No matter your schedule, you don’t have to compromise on care.
The reasons we seek mental and emotional health care remain the same whether we desire face-to-face or online care. Individuals, partners, and families pursue therapy and counseling to enrich their lives, solve challenges, or prepare for future complications.
A licensed mental health professional can provide the same great services you receive face-to-face online. Some of these services include:
Our mental and emotional health can shape our self-esteem, our relationships, and our perceptions of the world. Our wellbeing is too important to ignore, and virtual therapy can ensure that we schedule routine mental health checkups no matter our time constraints.
Online therapy is all about convenient and effective care. Your licensed professional can provide the same services you receive during traditional therapy with several added benefits. These include:
Speaking with a provider online allows you to schedule appointments during breaks in your day without having to worry about commuting. If you’re a person with limited mobility or someone who lives in a remote area, online services can provide an easy way for you to speak to a professional from wherever you are. You can even create an at-home or on-the-go space that puts you at ease and promotes open dialogue with your provider.
Like in-person therapy, virtual therapy helps you face your challenges from the inside out. You’ll learn to identify any internal or external triggers, combat negative thinking patterns, and apply coping techniques as you progress on your journey.
We want therapy to be as accessible as possible. That’s why we accept a number of different health insurance policies to accommodate your needs and why we offer a flexible cancellation policy. We also offer evening and weekend sessions, and same-week appointments to new clients.
Online counseling has real-world benefits. To see how it can help you, schedule an appointment with us today at Thriveworks in Thousand Oaks, CA.
