About

I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than six years of experience in the field of psychology. Many of my clients come to me after a major life change such as a break up from a long relationship, divorce or the loss of a loved one. I specialize in helping them to relieve symptoms of anxiety and depression that they might be encountering from these life changes. I help them to learn to regulate their emotions as well as learn to overcome negative beliefs about themselves. I am a firm believer that we can change our life and heal from past wounds that are disconnecting us from our true self. In my sessions I use evidence-based practices such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy and Mindfulness, to meet the diverse care needs of my clients. I strongly believe in a holistic approach (mind, body, spirit) to therapy and incorporate interventions geared toward improving the client’s overall wellness. I have also facilitated programs for parents such as the Nurturing Parenting Program, and also have facilitated Prevention Substance abuse programs for adolescents. I have many years of experience in facilitating groups related to communication, anger management, social skills, and self-esteem program for youths and adults. “My passion is to help others connect with their inner strength and wisdom. I am here to provide you with the necessary tools in your healing journey.” I am fluent in English and Spanish.
