My approach to care
My approach to care is helping families help themselves with empathy and compassion where they are. I utilize CBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing techniques.
Why I went into healthcare
I became a social worker because I want to give back to my community and support families to create possibilities for themselves.
Something you might not know about me
I am from Peru. I love traveling, cooking international food, and hiking on Sundays.
