* LOVE TO USE EMOJIS, JUST IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED IT YET.

* I KNOW THAT HAVING AN AMAZING MARRIAGE IS POSSIBLE, BECAUSE I'VE CREATED MINE. HE IS MY OTHER HALF.

* A MOM TO A BEAUTIFUL 22 -YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND BLESSED WITH 2 AMAZING ADULT STEP-SONS... YEP, OREO ALSO COUNTS AS ONE OF OUR CHILDREN.

CAREER JOURNEY (OR LIFE LONG PASSION? 🤔)

* DISCOVERED MY PASSION FOR PSYCHOLOGY WHEN I WAS 16, AFTER ATTENDING MY OWN THERAPY.

* THE UNCONSCIOUS PROCESSES OF THE HUMAN MIND FASCINATE ME. TRULY; IT'S THE WAY I SEE THE WORLD.

* STUDIED PSYCHOLOGY IN BOTH COUNTRIES. GRADUATED 👩‍🎓 WITH HONORS FOR MY BACHELOR AND EARNED A 4.0 GPA ON MY MASTER'S.

* LICENSED MARRIAGE AND FAMILY THERAPIST IN CALIFORNIA (LMFT 93659). TRAUMA CERTIFIED. BEEN HELPING PATIENTS SINCE 2009. HAVE WORKED WITH CHILDREN, TEENS, ADULTS, COUPLES, FAMILIES, GROUPS, AND COURT MANDATED CASES.

* I'M A CLINICAL SUPERVISOR TO HELP OTHER THERAPISTS BECOME LICENSED PROFESSIONALS.

* DIRECT A COMPANY TO HELP AND INSPIRE MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS.

* PRACTICED IN MULTIPLE INTENSE PROGRAMS PROVIDING SERVICES TO THE DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH. YES, TONS OF CRISIS MANAGEMENT UNDER MY BELT.

* MY RESUME IS 12-PAGE LONG, FULL OF EXTRA-CURRICULUM TRAININGS, COURSES, AND WORKSHOPS I COMPLETED TO FURTHER MY THERAPEUTIC SKILLS (NO KIDDING WHEN I SAID THAT THIS STUFF FASCINATES ME).

* AFTER ALL THAT, YOU CAN STILL HEAR MY SPANISH ACCENT 😄 (APPARENTLY THAT ONE IS NOT GOING AWAY).
