Are you struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety, work stress, parenting, or relational issues? You’re not alone. Nearly one out of four adults are struggling in these areas or other mental health issues every year. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and have been practicing for nearly twenty years. My approach as a therapist is warm, curious, and compassionate.
I am a seasoned, culturally sensitive, empathic, and holistic mental health therapist providing trilingual therapy services in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. I have extensive training in trauma focused modalities including EMDR, Sensory Motor Psychotherapy, and mindfulness approaches. My expertise includes parenting and post-partum issues.
I am passionate about partnering with individuals and families to help explore patterns, activate positive and healthy experiences, access an array of emotions and strengths, and make progress towards wellness goals. I invite you to visit my website at: Joyfulhealingtherapy.com

I use a holistic approach, meeting clients at where they are at, using both cognitive-oriented (talk therapy) as well as Somatic or body-oriented (through trauma informed modalities) and integrate mindfulness and self-compassion approaches. I work with each individual with curiosity and cultural sensitivity.
