Therapists in Brookline, MA

BEST way to reach me is EMAIL. I believe emotional healing happens in a therapeutic relationship. I offer relation-oriented, emotion-focused psychotherapy to clients who are interested in relieving symptoms, identifying patterns, resolving conflicts, building satisfying relationships, finding fulfillment in life, etc. My work is trauma-informed due to my passion for trauma treatment, especially that of developmental trauma, and an understanding that traumatic experience is existentially inevitable in human life. I also enjoy helping young professionals, first-time parents, and new immigrants navigate challenging life situations.

There can be many reasons to consider beginning therapy. We seem to live in a time of increased isolation and alienation, dissatisfaction and unrest. Talk therapy provides a unique space for connection, reflection, and understanding. It can help with overcoming internal and external obstacles, leading to a higher quality of life and relationships. I have experience working with people who have depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, addiction, fears, and a range of mental health challenges. By gaining a deeper understanding of your issues and yourself, we can find relief and a way forward.

As a psychotherapist, my goal is to help people talk about life challenges. My psychoanalytic training helps clients uncover their true potentials and work on their long-standing behavior patterns that may be holding them back from experiencing a more fulfilling and happier life. A licensed mental health counselor and licensed substance abuse counselor and supervisor, I have over 20 years of extensive experience working with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues.

Sometimes we may find ourselves having to deal with issues that might make us to feel lost, saddened, puzzled, unhappy and frustrated; These are the moments when understanding and kind support is so much needed so we could reconnect with inner self for resilience.

There is no way to adequately describe the experience of living with depression and anxiety. For the roughly 14% of Americans who suffer from these conditions, everyday activities, such as going to work, speaking in class, even meeting friends for dinner, can become agonizing challenges accompanied by a host of negative physical and emotional symptoms. Perhaps you've noticed your face burning when you speak in public; have felt like an impostor at work and wait to be "found out," or maybe you've experienced a surge of panic (racing-heart, trouble breathing, dizziness, nausea) when you least expected it?

Appointment are available. Are you feeling depressed or anxious? Do you or someone close to you have a substance use concern? Has a traumatic event occurred? Are you wondering about your career? Are educational concerns a worry to you? Life is complex and transitions sometimes difficult to navigate. Starting or renewing a therapy endeavor might be something to investigate. We can navigate and ferret out what you would like to discuss.

We all have times when our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, or relationships become locked in unhelpful patterns that can be very difficult to alter.

Hi, and welcome. For many people, the decision to get help can be a difficult one. I see your visit to my profile as a sign of strength and a refusal to give up. Loneliness, the inability to enjoy life, excessive worry or fear, anxiety in social situations, unhappiness or problems in personal, professional or marital relationships, not knowing what to do personally or professionally, even substance "abuse" and PTSD are issues that are interpersonal, not biological. They can be overcome within a genuinely understanding, compassionate, active, and patient therapeutic relationship.

Going to therapy implies the courage to question ourselves and face the challenges that get in the way of self-acceptance. Our lives change and we often struggle to change with it. I believe therapy can be a transformative encounter that allows a different experience of ourselves. As a native Spanish-English speaker, I provide a culturally sensitive approach to therapy and am mindful of race, gender, sexuality, and class intersections. My background and my current role as a clinician at Harvard University Counseling and Mental Health Services have allowed me to work with patients from all over the world.

In my practice, by face to face sessions or by using online Telehealth confidential therapy, I work with clients to feel comfortable and to form a bond, based on trust, that will foster a relaxed positive therapeutic interaction. It is important to me that, from the very first session, the client can communicate his or her story and feels heard, so that I can understand the presenting issues, communicate hope, and formulate mutually agreeable goals to achieve in our work together.

I am an independently licensed social worker deeply committed to helping individuals and couples navigate issues that they feel are impeding their ability to live as the best, most authentic version of themselves. Over the past five years, I have worked with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, gender/identity issues, OCD, relationship difficulties, self esteem and many others. I strongly believe that therapy can only be effective if it is rooted in the philosophy of unconditional positive regard, and I believe that this is reflected in my open, candid and profoundly non-judgmental style.
