I have focused much of my experience working with several areas of concern and populations including but not limited to LGBTQ, Latinx, Teens/Adolescents, Couples, topics of Intimacy & Relationships, Anxiety, and Depression.
I believe that the purpose of therapy is to supply others with guidance towards developing tools and skills that allow them to ultimately set themselves free. I am here to offer support in helping you achieve your goals, meeting you where you are, and providing you with a comfortable non-judgmental space that would allow to open up. My hope is to connect with individuals, create a space that normalizes expressing feelings and assist in helping them through life transitions, others develop a plan towards reaching new goals, & be the bridge to their personal growth journey.

I have been a Psychotherapist for the past 29 years, I consider myself "seasoned" and not old. My favorite saying is "Trust the Process". I am Hispanic and Bilingual, I treat everyone with the upmost respect and like for you to feel comfortable as it will be easy to talk about what is happening. I specialize in Individuals, couples, Substance abuse and end of life. I sometimes say it gets worse before it gets better, as we have to deal with the difficult issues we have swept under the rug in order to be able to move forward and see things from a different perspective. Mindfulness, CBT, Solution focused therapy.

It takes a lot of courage to start looking for a therapist. You or your loved one might be experiencing a pain that you don't know how to overcome. Whether it is sadness that won't go away, fear, or simply a tough time dealing with life's issues, its time to work on it. That's what brought you here. You realize it might be a phase, but maybe it hasn't improved even after talking to friends and family about it. It's hard to carry this on your own, and you are ready for change. You might not be sure how, or with whom, but you are ready. So proud of you and your courage.

I have experienced many failures in my life that have left me feeling as if I were lost and alone. It wasn’t until I was able to shift my perspective and practice forgiveness, that I was able to overcome these perceived losses. It was through these adversities that I was provided with the opportunity to grow, to change, and ultimately, to empower.

Hispanic and Latino Therapists

What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?

An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.

Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?

A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.

How can I recognize a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?

Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.

How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?

Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.

Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?

The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
