Hola! I am Brenda, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist-Associate supervised by Kelly Clarke, MS, LMFT-S

Empathetic, Caring, and Culturally Sensitive Support

With a rich background in legal aid, youth and family case management, and family services, I bring a compassionate and family-oriented approach to my practice. As a first-generation Mexican American and a fluent English and Spanish speaker, I understand the unique challenges that diverse communities face and am dedicated to providing support that honors each client’s cultural experiences.

I strive to create a safe, welcoming space where clients can explore their concerns openly. My approach is rooted in transparency, humility, and mindfulness, allowing clients to feel seen, heard, and respected. Whether you’re facing family dynamics, immigration stressors, or personal challenges, I’m here to offer a blend of empathy and discipline, empowering you to make choices that lead to positive, lasting change.

I look forward to working towards your goals.
