A clinical psychotherapist for over 30 years, I work extensively with individuals, couples, and families treating depression, anxiety, grief, and other emotional stressors. I have broad experience working with familial issues (e.g., balancing relationships, family, career, etc.) and specialize in couples and women facing critical decisions in their lives. This includes natural life transitions such as marriage, pregnancy, and menopause. Many of my clients come from or work in multicultural environments, and I help them to address many of the challenges that arise from living in another culture. [I am bilingual (Spanish/English)]

I always seek to bring a passionate engagement to my work with individuals, couples and families. I specialize in helping people with relationship issues and am devoted to helping people develop deeply satisfying and fulfilling intimate and family relationships. I am especially committed to helping couples preserve their primary intimate relationship in the face of challenging life circumstances and relationship issues. I have helped couples in crisis come back from the brink of divorce, I have helped couples recover from the trauma of infidelity, and I have helped couples navigate the process of grief over a lost family member.

I provide psychological evaluations and psychotherapy. The psychological evaluations are in two specialized areas: immigration cases and psychoeducational. The psychotherapy takes the form of individual, couples, family or group sessions.

These evaluations include filing for asylum, extreme hardship impacting families of immigrants, domestic abuse petitions and waiver of citizenship exam.

It takes a lot of courage to come to therapy and tell someone you just met the intimate details of your life. That bravery is not lost on me. Many times in our lives we feel stuck.

As your therapist, I can be there to provide emotional support, insight, and suggestions to help you make progress. I believe that individuals, couples, and families can make changes to achieve their goals.

I specialize in sex and internet pornography addiction. I work one-on-one with indivuals, couples, families, and those attracted to minors.

Hello! I am Sabrina, DC born and raised, and from a large immigrant Peruvian household. I believe therapy is a helpful space to deepen one’s understanding of themselves and others. It is also a space for growth and healing from our past experiences that have shaped us and our worldview. I use a systemic lens that involves viewing the individual within the context of a larger system. This includes people, environments, rules, and societal norms that impact us.
