Hi, I’m Erika, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Marriage and family therapist in Los Angeles, California. Having experienced many of my struggles has helped me develop compassion for others and an ability to relate on different levels. It also sparked my passion for helping those who struggle with low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and anxiety.

I am compassionate, patient, personable, and I enjoy bringing humor to therapy (when appropriate). I provide a safe space where you can be yourself and be vulnerable without judgment. I strive for you to feel seen, heard, understood, respected, and valued. I utilize a strength-based approach and draw from various therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Solution Focused, among others. I also provide tools and techniques tailored to your needs to help you achieve your goals.

I have extensive experience in the mental health field. I have worked in different capacities ranging from a residential facility to community and school-based mental health services. The populations I’ve served were children, adolescents, adults, and families from diverse populations.
