I am a licensed (LMHC and LADC1) an experienced bicultural /bilingual behavioral health counselor (Spanish/English) with over 30 years of experience serving the multicultural and Latino community in the North Shore area. I work with clients from different cultural and socio-economic backgrounds. I have a unique multicultural understanding of mental health disorders and how to lead and to treat individuals in their communities. I worked at LCHC in Lynn as a supervising clinician and as the Director of the Group therapy program which I designed and implemented. I am currently working with Catholic Charities as a bicultural clinician.

Welcome. I provide a supportive safe space to facilitate growth and healing. In my years of experience, I have worked with clients in different stages of their mental health journey. I tailor my therapeutic style to the client's individual needs.

My goal as your therapist is to help you achieve peace with your past and develop healthy ways to cope in the present. I have 7 years of experience providing individual and group therapy. I am trained in EMDR (an evidence-based approach to addressing trauma, grief, loss and negative thinking). I am also fully trained in CPT (a specific type of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for PTSD). In addition, I utilize CBT essentials, motivational interviewing, and various other therapeutic interventions as well as a 12 step informed approach to recovery. I provide a safe, empathetic, supportive environment where you can feel comfortable.

Hi, nice to meet you! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social worker (LICSW) and have worked for 4 years providing individual and family therapy to clients of all ages and many diverse backgrounds. I completed my education at Simmons University. I focus on person-centered, strengths based support for a variety of needs such as anxiety, depression, communication, ADHD, self-esteem, etc.

As a member of the community, I cultivate an environment that is safe and welcoming for those identifying as LGBTQ+. I support those dealing with more severe psychological conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, self harm, personality disorders, and trauma. I also have interest and commitment to helping my clients navigate the unique challenges associated with young adulthood which include the commonly experienced issues of identity exploration, relationship growth, learning to thrive in academic environments, achieving success with vocational pursuits, and establishing independence.

I am a licensed psychologist with over 30 years of clinical experience in the treatment of children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My primary goal when providing therapy is to help patients move as quickly as possible from a place of suffering to a place of joy, enthusiasm, and excitement. This is true for both the children I treat, as well as for the adults. My focus is always on the strengths of the patient, and not on pathology or deficits. In order to help patients create change quickly in their lives I utilize a number of effective treatment modalities.

Forming a positive and interpersonal therapeutic relationship with each patient is fundamental to developing effective coping skills, fostering a deeper self-knowledge, and ultimately achieving a sustainable whole-self. It is of great importance to me, that the person seeking my services comes to believe in themselves and in their own potential for achieving wholeness, healing and strength. I utilize empathetic, supportive language and other therapeutic methods to enhance and actualize treatment success. I have been working effectively with patients for more than 15 years, creating a warm and naturally therapeutic environment.

I have 20 years of experience as a clinical social worker and prior to that was a home-based family counselor. I view my role as helping the person clarify troubling life experiences, past and present, and to understand their responses to those experiences. These may include: difficult relationships and families, unresolvable ambiguity; agonies of adolescence; substance and alcohol abuse, or legacies of trauma and existential dilemmas. I believe each person contains the seeds of their own solution and I work to nurture that individual solution. This happens in a relationship where it becomes safe to "say anything."

Many of our problems can stem from our perceptions and distorted thinking. People are able to survive and conquer so much more then they believe is true. I have twenty years of experience as a therapist with a wide range of issues. My approach is more eclectic as I believe that different people require different approaches. However, my background and schooling focused on marriage and family therapy. Also, I use a lot from cognitive behavioral therapy which focuses on a lot of our faulty perceptions. We live in such a fast paced society that we often just need to simplify.

As a multi-approach and holistic therapist, I tailor my clinical approach to meet individual needs in a collaborative patient-therapist alliance. I hold a certification in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and also apply Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to treat conditions such as OCD, PTSD, and eating disorders, as well as providing generalized anxiety and/or stress management and relationship exploration to individuals of all ages. I believe that individuals deserve to be in the drivers seat in their healthcare choices, and can offer a variety of evidence-based approaches to help you meet your goals.

Often times, life's waves produce times of emotional hardship marked by deep seated feelings of grief, sadness, confusion, depression, worry, and anxiety. Therapy is an opportunity to have the space, support, and safety to address the waves inherent in everyday life without judgment. If you are experiencing a life transition, a break-up, day-to-day parenting and relationship stress, or you are simply being haunted by past events or thoughts that don't seem to budge, therapy can provide an outlet to gain the insight, awareness, and relief you may be seeking.

Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. I prefer to be contacted by email.

Humans have the ability to enjoy life, be happy and overcome challenging situations. Sometimes we get stuck in the process of discovering our sources of pleasure, fun and relaxation, and when that happens, we suffer; in those moments it seems like the pain will never end. However, we have strengths that are yet to be discovered. I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of experience. I am bilingual, in English and Spanish. My mission is to help you find the strengths to support growth, empowerment and healing, mentally and physically.
