ABOUT ME:
At Empowered Mariposa, our mission is to create a supportive and inclusive space where individuals from all racial and ethnic backgrounds feel seen, valued, and empowered. We are committed to fostering resilience and growth by honoring each person’s unique story and embracing both holistic practices and evidence-based therapeutic approaches. Just as the mariposa (butterfly)symbolizes transformation, we walk alongside our clients to navigate change, discover inner strength and build tools to thrive.
I believe in a person in environment approach, recognizing that each individual’s story is shaped by their experiences, relationships, and community. Because healing is never a one-size-fits-all, I work collaboratively with clients to find strategies that honor their strengths and align with their goals. As both a therapist and a mother of four, I bring compassion, understanding, and real-life perspective to my practice.
