Hi, I’m a queer psychotherapist based in New York looking to help others explore their queer and sexual identities while prioritize mental wellbeing. My multicultural upbringing, immigration experience, and growing up low-income have not only inspired me to help people who are marginalized because of how they identify, but also those who experience systematic violence. Through diverse lived and clinical experiences, I'm able to help in the discovery of inner thoughts, identities, relationships, and social issues that affect how you show up in the world.
I specialize in supporting BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, youth, and neurodivergent folks. I help people of all ages in English and Spanish working through complex diagnoses, substance use, instances of violence, immigrant family dynamics, as well as exploring sexuality, non-monogamy, gender, kink, and BDSM.
I provide a warm and welcoming space for you to explore deeper feelings. My queer and kink-affirming approaches offer a safe place to express what’s on your mind. Together let’s work towards aligning with your most authentic self!
