As a psychologist, my job is to help my patients identify problematic patterns, understand formative relationships, and develop self understanding. The greatest predictor of success in therapy is the therapist-patient relationship and finding a therapist with whom you feel understood and can explore painful issues is crucial. The essence of good therapy is empathy, tactful directness, and a collaborative approach to help people make and internalize changes to improve relationships and impart a sense of well-being. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space where we can explore the past and create a new future.

I believe healing is a collaborative effort between a client and his or her clinician. To be most effective, a clinician must provide sincere empathy without judgement. As a Hispanic woman from New York City, I am attuned to the importance of the multicultural implications within therapy. I assist my clients in developing clear, attainable treatment goals. Rather than adopting one methodology for all individuals and issues, I draw from a variety of methods to create a tailored approach.

My clients struggle with anxiety and depression. Some have been significantly traumatized. I strive to create a safe and nurturing relationship that fosters in-depth self-examination which is the building block to establish (or re-establish) a productive and fulfilling life. This process begins by offering them hope and my assurance that I will work with them to achieve their goals.

I successfully work with persons chemically addicted to drugs and alcohol. A large part of my focus is working with individuals that would benefit from the use of an addiction medication, such as Methadone or Suboxone. I also work with non-chemically addicted individuals such as problem gamblers. It is a recognized strength to work with addicted individuals with respect and dignity and without moral judgment. I support individuals' use of 12 step programs however; I effectively work with individuals who do not prescribe to 12 step philosophies.
