There are times when life feels particularly hard.

Perhaps you’re in the middle of a break-up or facing a loss that seems unmanageable. Or maybe you’re struggling in your personal relationships, frustrated or feeling exhausted by putting others’ needs before your own.

I have been a licensed Mental Health Counselor for 20 years, with a holistic approach to look at the individual's functioning in all aspects of their life. I will work with you to identify obstacles that are preventing you from having a happy and healthy lifestyle and develop a plan to achieve your personal goals. Some of the areas I focus on include family conflicts, relationship issues, sports psychology, self-esteem, depression and anxiety.

Welcome to my practice! I am a bilingual Spanish/English therapist that works with adults, and young adults to help improve their overall quality of life. Whether you have a history of anxiety, depression, or mood disorder, or you are at the moment going through a difficult time in your life, therapy can help you cope with your symptoms, and find ways to make changes in your life. I also work with parents to help them cope with the stress-related symptoms of having children with special needs/disabilities and mental health issues.

Psychotherapy, as I define it to my patients and students, is the collaborative inquiry between patient and therapist into the patient's patterns of interaction and patterns of expectation. This kind of study leads to greater personal and interpersonal freedom, which allows for the reduction or the elimination of symptoms. Psychotherapy can be of brief duration or an extended enterprise focusing on long term difficulties. The decision on which form of psychotherapy to undertake is usually based on an evaluation of 1 to 3 sessions, where a treatment plan is developed. I am interactive in my approach.

I have worked with diverse populations and people of all ages ranging from 4-74 years old while working in community mental health. My clinical experience also includes treating children and adolescents with trauma and severe emotional and behavioral issues at two residential schools. I currently focus on children, teens/adolescents, families, and adults. I enjoy working with (and working alongside) athletes, taking a sports psychology approach. I also have a strong history of working well with clients who have not responded/had difficulty engaging in traditional therapy.

The heart of my practice is developing a safe, warm, and trusting therapeutic relationship. I offer a strength-based approach while meeting the needs and preferences of each client. For 10+ years, I have supported teens and young adults with multiple clinical disorders including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, suicidality, self-harm, school avoidance, family/relationship conflict & more. I am a strong believer in the power of collaboration and connection and hope to offer you a space where we will work together using your strengths to achieve your social, emotional, behavioral and therapeutic goals.

Change is hard. People often seek psychotherapy around change. They want to change. People in their life want them to change. Or some life change is affecting them in a meaningful way. Often, it's a combination. By working together I can help you in this challenge. I frequently work with adolescents and adults struggling with addiction in themselves or in their families. Many of my patients are addressing anxiety, depression, questions or challenges regarding their sexual orientation, infertility, life transitions, traumatic experiences or eating disorders and other compulsive behaviors. A lot of my patients are college or graduate students.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, domestic violence, eating disorders, dual diagnosis, or life changes? I can assist you with developing coping skills, practicing mindfulness, and utilizing tools to manage your mental health effectively.

This mindset will allow us to build a positive therapeutic relationship that can bring about positive changes in their lives.

Day time opening for a new client - I provide treatment to individuals who suffer from depression, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma, perfectionism, stress management, loss/grief, transitions between stages of life, and relational problems.

As a psychologist and psychoanalyst, I aim to help patients understand the trouble in their lives and make significant changes. I believe it is important to take the time to get to know patients' stories. My approach is both collaborative and challenging. Sometimes this involves helping people look at parts of themselves that are painful, or hard to see clearly. Many patients benefit from long-term, intensive therapy, while others find that shorter-term therapy helps them solve immediate problems.

My ideal client is prepared to initiate changes in their life to promote wellness. They are prepared to process internal and external contributors to their mood, discuss options for improvement, and practice healthier skills that will assist in achieving their personal goals. My ideal client is internally motivated and desires emotional balance from concerns such as anxiety, depression, impaired self-esteem, trauma, and interpersonal conflict. They arrive to treatment with goals in mind, and will actively work to experience relief of distressing symptoms.

My ideal client would be someone who is ready and willing to participate in treatment. I am comfortable with an array of different diagnoses and struggles. Their needs would include working towards tangible goals that we are able to breakdown in the treatment setting. They may want to work on self-esteem, depression, anxiety, PTSD symptoms etc. They would want to minimize their symptoms and improve everyday functioning. The goal would ultimately be to no longer need treatment as they have reached their goals.
