About
As a bilingual Latina therapist, I provide a safe and supportive space to explore your inner world and grow into your best self, no matter your circumstances.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 1 year of experience supporting clients on their journey toward healing and growth. I create a safe, welcoming space where you can feel heard and understood without judgment. I specialize in working with individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, and depression, and I am passionate about helping clients discover their inner strengths and build coping strategies that support their long-term well-being.
I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Cambridge College.

These approaches help clients gain insight, strengthen coping skills, and create positive, lasting change.
I believe in each person’s ability to heal and grow, and I am honored to walk alongside you on this journey. My goal is to support you in moving toward a life of balance, clarity, and self-compassion.

I understand how quietly heavy life can feel—even when everything looks “fine” on the outside.
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience supporting people through the messy, beautiful, and complicated parts of life. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, acute and chronic medical conditions, and life transitions. My goal is to create a safe and welcoming space for those ready to explore what healing might look like for them, knowing that every journey is unique. I bring compassion, perspective, and strength to the work we do together, meeting each client where they are and helping them move toward meaningful growth.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University. My approach is collaborative, integrative, and strength-based, drawing on evidence-based modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness, and person-centered therapy. I also use compassion-focused methods to build safety and reduce self-criticism.
Therapy with me isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about having a space where you can breathe, be real, and feel heard. I strive to create an environment where you don’t have to pretend, where you can voice the hard things and begin to find your way forward. I hope to support you as you uncover your own resilience and path to healing.

As a human being, I understand the myriad of psychiatric, psychological, and mental health problems that humans face throughout their formative years, adolescence, young adulthood, and mid-adulthood.

Psychotherapy is a mental health service directed at treating assorted mental health conditions and disorders. The goal of this treatment is to improve a client’s daily functioning, ability to manage symptoms, and overall life satisfaction.
Psychotherapy works by employing a variety of therapeutic approaches, depending on a client’s symptoms and concerns, in an effort to adjust perspectives, change behaviors, mitigate mental health symptoms, and address any other goals established by the client and therapist. Making these adjustments will usually involve talking about one’s past experiences, emotional introspection, making connections between emotions and behaviors, and many other practices.
