Life can feel overwhelming, whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, or communication issues that leave you feeling disconnected. When you're caught in these moments, the strategies that once helped may no longer work. You may feel stuck or exhausted from trying to keep everything together.
Even when things seem “fine,” a quiet dissatisfaction may linger. You want more from your life or relationship but aren’t sure how to reach it. You don’t have to face this alone. I’m here to help you shift from surviving to thriving with clarity, support, and intentional steps forward.
I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) psychotherapist with a doctoral degree, and a licensed clinical social worker with over 28 years of experience, I work with children and adults facing anxiety, depression, grief, and couples/family issues. I offer Telehealth sessions in MA, NY, NJ, and CT, using tailored, supportive approaches to help you heal and grow.
Beginning therapy is a meaningful step, and finding the right connection matters. In a free 15-minute initial consultation, we’ll discuss your concerns and what you hope to achieve. Together, we’ll determine if we’re a good fit and outline the next steps. My hours are flexible, and sessions are scheduled according to your needs and goals.
