About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and board-approved Supervisor. I have over twenty-five years of experience working in the field of mental health and substance abuse. I received my bachelors’ degree in Psychology and obtained my Master’s degree in Social Work. In addition, I also studied substance abuse issues/disorders for two years post-undergraduate degree. I provide therapy to individuals, families, couples and groups. My background includes working with depression, anxiety, bipolar, domestic violence, marital and family, trauma, grief and bereavement, anger management, critical incidents, management consultation, and drug and alcohol issues and addictions. I also provide training in areas of stress management, sexual harassment and threats of violence in the workplace. I use an eclectic approach to therapy, as it is important to assess what approach or style of therapy will work best with client(s) needs and abilities. They may include but are not limited to psychoanalytic, person-centered, cognitive behavior, trauma-focused cognitive behavior, dialectical behavior, solution-focused and motivational interviewing. I am also fluent in Spanish.
