Therapists in Brookfield, MA

Are you experiencing burnout in your relationships? Do you feel overwhelmed with life's challenges? Let me help you. My therapeutic approach helps you to be more aware of your fears, resentments, anger, anxiety, negative thoughts, and undesirable habits. On the next step, I will assist you to overcome all these challenges. On every level, this process improves your relationships with family, partner, co-workers, friends, and more importantly with your own sense of self. During the course of therapy, I commit myself in providing a confidential, empathic, and collaborative approach to build an effective relationship with you.

I am a bilingual licensed mental health therapist and treat clients in Spanish or English. I have worked with all ages including 12+ adolescents, college students, young adults, middle-aged men and women, parents, and seniors. With compassion and experience I have helped many who struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, all forms of abuse, difficult life transitions, grief, gender identity, relationships, dual culture living, low self-esteem, anger management, excessive worry and communication issues. My overall goal is to help people improve their quality of life by becoming a better version of themselves. Therapy will help!

All people are innately good and have the ability to heal themselves. Stressors are ever present in our everyday lives and are manifested through multiple ways. While these stressors can be the genesis of our problems, they are also the catalyst to starting the healing process. After making the decision to seek counseling and wellness care, the second most critical step is who will provide this care.
