Has something major happened in your life that has left you feeling stunned, shocked and asking, “why me?” Are you ready to stop hurting and start feeling better? We work with people like you, who have been blindsided by an unexpected event. We help you move beyond the pain and make real changes to be happy again. If you’ve recently experienced a sudden change such as separation, divorce, sudden job loss, a medical diagnosis or the death of someone close to you, you may feel stuck in a place of loss and grief.

****Now accepting new clients!*** The basis of useful therapy is a good working relationship. We work to build that strong, genuine foundation so clients know they have a safe space to work. Our therapeutic approach is grounded in a balanced blend of relational processing and the latest neuroscience. We work first to understand your perspective and therapeutic goals. Together, we create a customized treatment plan using research-based interventions to help you get there.

Welcome to seeing the world from a new and more optimistic viewpoint. My work emphasizes personal power to envision dreams, to enact potential, and to overcome obstacles that leave you feeling incomplete and frustrated. Whether you come on your own, with a partner, or with your family, I will help you gain a new perspective on your problems, stress, and emotional distress. I will help you identify and change limiting habits of thought, feeling and action, communicate more effectively, and interact in ways that help all of you experience more happiness, satisfaction, and feelings of personal effectiveness and well-being.

At this moment, it may feel like a struggle and that there are very few options. So, let me tell you a secret… Not to spoil the ending but everything is going to be okay. I understand that the feelings you are going through are very overwhelming. A wise leader once said, “When things are shaky and nothing is working, we might realize that we are on the verge of something.” In other words,your current struggle is a guide and we can work through the heart ache.

I offer supportive and compassionate services, while also providing a psycho-educational and holistic framework with encouragement toward making the necessary changes to reach your potential. I utilize a style that validates your unique experience, while offering guidance to get unstuck from habitual patterns that can be hurtful to yourself and others. My goal is to support you in regaining a greater sense of well-being and focus in your life, which often involves finding a work-life balance.

Whatever you think you can do or believe you can do, begin it now. Action has magic, grace, and power in it.(Goethe) I am passionate about psychotherapy because it frequently reminds me that magic, grace, and powerful change are possible. We all feel confused, stuck, or hopeless during the course of our lives. Personally and professionally my work confirms that we are designed to grow towards healing and authentic happiness. As the sources of suffering often originate from impairments or losses in our primary relationships,so the greatest potential in psychotherapy lies in the relationship between client and therapist.

We are naturally adaptive, dynamic, and functional beings, able to live life with a strong sense of connection, security, and internal validation that who we are is enough. Sometimes, we lose the sense of who we really are. You may feel unfocused, out of control, and powerless. Your life may lie in pieces on the floor. Maybe you made compromises that ended up harming you or someone you love. Maybe you have serious questions about who you really are anymore, whether all of this is worth it. If you feel this way, it may be time for something different than your regular weekly scheduled programming.

Welcome. I have worked for over 20 years with families and individuals of all ages and backgrounds. When I take on a new client I commit to working with them as long as they are willing to work on themselves.

*Accepting New Clients* We believe everyone deserves a life worth living; simply because you are here you deserve a life based on your terms, needs, and desires. That said, many of us have experienced things in our lives that get in the way of us believing or realizing this. Sometimes, we simply have not been taught the skills we need or perhaps things have happened in our lives that interfere with us using those skills. We will work with you to uncover what it would mean for you to live your life worth living.

**CURRENTLY FULL AND NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS.** Welcome! With expertise in Women's Issues, Life Transitions, and Solutions-Focused Treatment, I provide Online Holistic Psychotherapy for Women. I graduated from the Columbia University School of Social Work (1987) and have rich practice experience in NYC, Providence, and Santa Fe. The work is about what your goals for YOU are - it is collaborative, relaxed, responsive, empowered, and kind. It is further enriched by my knowledge of both western and eastern techniques (emphasizing mindfulness and narrative) and by the idea that there is ALWAYS meaning to be found, even in struggle.

I have worked with children and families for over twenty years. My primary focus has been on trauma, connection and attachment. I received my Registered Play Therapist Supervisor about two years ago and have focused in addition on infant mental health.

Our bodies are naturally inclined towards balance, resilience and healing.

Are you considering participating in counseling or psychotherapy to address depression, anxiety, and/or substance abuse? If you are, I would be happy to have a tele-health session with you. I use a strength-based integrative counseling and psychotherapy approach to help those I work with to overcome their emotional and/or behavioral health difficulties.

Often clients need to be seen and heard so that they can process emotions and stress from past trauma or current stressors in which they feel stuck and unable to move forward. You may need support to better understand your life experiences that led you to the present. You need to feel the safe compassionate presence of another to process. I provide warm, relational, supportive client centered therapy and am experienced with anxiety, depression and complex trauma. I have worked with people from diverse ethnic and socio economic backgrounds and integrate an understanding of cultural factors and intergenerational trauma in our work.

My PhD in Clinical Psychology has given me the knowledge and sensitivity that psychotherapy is a very personal experience. Together we gain the trust to peel the layers of the "false self" away from the true, authentic self. Each person is different, therefore each person's healing has to be treated individually. Human suffering can be healed and I treat trauma from early childhood to the present, treating unhealthy early attachment issues we may use now in relationships. Together we will examine patterns which the patient finds distressing and long standing. I do not give advise, rather I help the patient find the advise within.

"Ama tu vida, ama tu historia, ama lo que eres" - "love your life, love your history, love who you are" . Bilingual (Spanish/English) - Parenting and relationships can be difficult. I believe parents always do their best, all learning, personality and development takes place in the context of relationship and are critically affected by the quality of those relationships. I am passionate to empower clients to own their strengths. I believe we all have the internal capacity to heal and reach our full potential. I use a holistic, relationship based, trauma-informed, strenght based, multicultural approach.
