I am a licensed psychologist in the state on New Jersey and New York. I conduct psychological evaluations as well I provide individual, couples and family therapy with Spanish population. I have extensive clinical experience working with Hispanic population. I have expertise in trauma focused therapy and evidence-based interventions for children, adolescents and adults. I specialize in disruptive disorders (i.e. ADHD, ODD), mutism, physical and sexual abuse, trauma, play therapy, personality and mood/anxiety disorders, and family disruption. Furthermore, I enjoy helping couples and families.
My extensive experience working in different clinical and community settings with a diverse population allows me to provide individualized treatment and evaluations recommendations focused on individual, cultural and systemic aspects. I am bilingual which allows me to work with Spanish speaking clients.

Si éstas buscando apoyo y alguien que te escuche compasionadamente y te brinde estrategias para mejorar me encantaría ayudarte y ser parte de tu jornada y metas.
