I have completed trainings in CBT, Art-Therapy and Attachment-Based Theory.
While going through life we may encounter different challenges. These challenges may involve career-related decisions, difficulties in interpersonal relationships, family changes, traumatic events, losses, life transitions, etc. Experiencing these situations may lead to increased stress, anxiety, depression, confusion, a sense of feeling lost or overwhelmed. Is this happening to you?

Miami, FL 33176
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of clinical experience working with children, families, and couples. As a psychotherapist, I believe in assisting clients to better their relationship with others, to understand and achieve a life that is meaningful and fulfilling. At times we react to life's adversities with fear and anger, burying our joy and hope. Through therapeutic support, I help my clients learn to recognize healthy ways to react to life's trials and take control in order to move forward and seek self-actualization and gratification.

Attachment-based Therapists
Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
