For twelve years I had the privilege of working in Denver and across Colorado within grassroots movements for systemic change. During this time it became clear to me not only how deeply our communities are affected by trauma, grief, and inequity, but also how healing and liberation are possible. This belief led me to pursue my master’s degree in social work at the University of California, Berkeley and go on to coordinate a mental health clinic in Quito, Ecuador. Since 2021 I have been privileged to serve Colorado clients as they embark on their healing journeys at Clinica Family Health and in my private practice. I am an LCSW licensed in the state of Colorado.
