Hi, I’m Nelly. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out alone. I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma, anxiety, and relational stress. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported as you work toward clarity, confidence, and connection.
With over 20 years of experience in education, counseling, and private practice, I understand how life’s challenges can affect your relationships, parenting, and emotional well-being. I use a blend of evidence-based tools and creative approaches to help you reconnect with your strengths and navigate change.
Therapy with me is collaborative, affirming, and tailored to your unique needs. I accept most major insurance plans and offer virtual sessions for flexibility and comfort. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, empowered, and emotionally connected, I’d be honored to support you. Healing is possible—and you deserve care that truly honors your story.
