After learning Spanish in the community and gaining extensive exposure to Latin culture, I began using my linguistic skills in a therapeutic setting while in graduate school working as an intern. During this time, I worked with numerous Spanish speaking clients at a non-profit clinic, and obtained my initial experience conducting therapy in Spanish. Later, I moved on to facilitate family sessions in Spanish while working in a residential treatment facility for eating disordered clients. I then transitioned to a community outpatient clinic where I was employed for over five years, and worked extensively with the Spanish-speaking population. In my current practice, I continue to serve a vast number of Spanish speaking clients and their families.
