Welcome To Mares

Bienvenidos!

I am a Bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist serving communities in California through in-person & online therapy. I am a Santa Cruz and Watsonville native with Mexicana roots. I believe in breaking down barriers and stigmas about mental health care and making it accessible to many via online therapy. I provide culturally sensitive mental health services to women in the perinatal period, birthers & partners, young adults, college students, young professionals, parents and older adults.

Here at Mares, I strongly believe that connection and collaboration are priorities in a therapeutic journey. This is a welcoming sanctuary dedicated to providing comprehensive therapeutic support throughout your perinatal journey. My specialized focus on perinatal mental health ensures that I am equipped to navigate the intricacies of fertility, pregnancy loss/termination, pregnancy, and the nuances of new parenthood.

I want to work with you to help you figure out how to solve challenges and find the most authentic version of yourself so that you can live the life you’ve always envisioned. On our therapeutic journey, I welcome you just the way you are so that we can work to create an authentic life balance that will support your success and happiness.

The foundation of Mares Therapy Collective is based upon the core principles of gratitude, compassion, authenticity and trust.
