Surf therapy and the ocean has been a big part of my own journey and I couldn’t feel more honored to be apart of offering it to the community. Whether you have zero experience around the ocean or you already have a regular surf practice, I would love to share with you my experience with Groundswell Community Project’s trauma-informed training and certification. This includes Mindfulness-based therapy, somatic-based therapy, expressive-arts, and eco-therapy practices.
My time working alongside Groundswell in group and 1:1 surf therapy sessions have been some of my most memorable experiences as an associate therapist. I also have background in other community organizations and treatment centers working with individuals in recovery, women, and teens. I can’t wait to hear from you and talk with you more about what these sessions include!

Hola! Hello! 👋
I am a bilingual Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, graduate of the MFT program at San Diego State University, class of 2022.
I specialize in Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Play and Art Therapy. I love combining these approaches with the healing power of the ocean to help you reframe your personal stories and build resilience. By riding life’s waves through surfing, I help support and empower you through your journey, helping you tap into your strengths and create a meaningful, fulfilling life.
Having spent my entire life by the ocean, I truly understand its therapeutic benefits. Whether it’s feeling the warm sand, getting your feet wet, or developing the skill of surfing. I am passionate about sharing the ocean’s healing effects with you.
