Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you’re unsure on who to trust with your story. You may be navigating anxiety, identity shifts, life transitions, or the impact of cultural and systemic stress. You might just need space to pause, reflect, and breathe. I strive to create a grounded, affirming relationship where insight, healing, and growth can unfold at your pace. Once that foundation is built, we’ll collaborate on clear, intentional goals and a personalized plan that supports lasting, meaningful change.

I have 10 years of experience supporting adults, adolescents, and children facing anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I’ve worked in outpatient clinics, schools, and in-home settings, which has shaped my client-centered approach. I strive to meet people where they are with care, insight, and cultural sensitivity.

Feel free to reach out if you're looking for a therapist who offers understanding, and real connection. I encourage you to reach out with any questions—we'll see if working together feels like a good fit. I offer virtual therapy across New Jersey and provide services in both English and Spanish.

Multicultural
Person-Centered
Psychodynamic

I use Psychodynamic Theory in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With Psychodynamic Theory, I help individuals gain deep self-awareness by exploring their unconscious thoughts, feelings, and past experiences, leading to better understanding of how these factors influence the present.
