Es un honor ofrecerle mis servicios profesionales en Español. Tengo más de 26 años de educación universitaria y experiencia laboral en el campo de salud mental en Estados Unidos.

Conmigo, usted tendrá una profesional en ambos idiomas y culturas. Entre los muchos profesionales que ofrecen sus servicios a través de este medio, conmigo usted elige a una persona que verdaderamente ama a su comunidad Latina y una profesional totalmente dedicada a su servicio y su bienestar personal y familiar.

Durante mis años de práctica, me di cuenta de que muchos problemas de salud mental tienen sus raíces en experiencias negativas o traumáticas. Es por eso que decidí especializarme en trauma, PTSD, diagnósticos duales y otros problemas relacionados. Podemos trabajar juntos para ayudarle a comprender por qué está experimentando tanta angustia y estrés. De esa manera, podrá también desarrollar estrategias para manejar su estrés.

Sometimes it feels as if we lost our way; our closest relationships are a constant source of conflict and loneliness, and we struggle to find true connections, clarity, confidence, hope, and peace. It does not need to be that way. You can be seen and loved for who you really are, and you can count on yourself and others through the ups and downs of life. I enjoy guiding people through that journey to become their best selves and to enjoy fulfilling relationships.

It can be difficult to open up and talk about your life stressors to someone you don’t know. Sometimes we can feel unheard or alone and just need someone who can be a helping, nonjudgmental, and listening ear. The hardest part can be finding the words to express ourselves and process what can feel like a jumbled mess and you just need someone to help put the scattered puzzle pieces together to create a beautiful picture. Aristotle said it best, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” I can help with building coping skills, work on effective communication, self-expression, processing trauma/grief, and mindfulness.

A very warm welcome to you! I am a bilingual (Spanish) Associate Professional Counselor (APC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC). I specialize in Clinical Rehabilitation (CRC) and Behavioral Counseling (BCBA). I provide individual, group, and family counseling services. I am a passionate advocate for person-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally positive counseling where you, the client, are empowered to decide how to change. As your counselor, "I want to empower you with the tools and the knowledge you need to overcome and succeed in all aspects of your life."

I know that taking the first step to let someone in can be really challenging. We all have intersecting identities that have a major impact on how we trust and who we let in on that process. No matter where you are in your healing journey, I believe it’s always better going through that process with someone. This journey is not linear and may feel confusing; however, we can work together to create a meaningful healing experience full of understanding, collaboration, and compassion; you deserve that much! I provide services in both English and Spanish.

Aiming to thrive and not solely survive? Despite our adverse experiences or current circumstances, we can find ourselves wanting to find more meaning in life. We help our clients slow down to closely examine the obstacles that are interfering with their ability to live the life they envision. Our approach to counseling is to learn to love yourself as you are while working on your areas of growth. We are all worthy of self-love and self-compassion, but all too often this is absent in our lives. Our hope is that through this process you find your true self and are courageous enough to embrace and live out your most authentic life!

What would it look for you to live a life that more closely aligns with your values and potential? Sometimes we find ourselves feeling stuck as we repeat the same self-defeating thoughts and behaviors. We try to cope with the inevitably uncomfortable feelings that come with being human, but our coping mechanisms just don't seem to work anymore. I want to help you identify those sticking points and cultivate new, healthier ways of coping. In short, I want to to help you feel more alive again.

In our highly complex and digitized society, it may feel instinctual to leave our sense of who we are as humans on standby.

I am a 13 year military veteran who grew up in the South Bronx, first generation Puerto Rican in this country, raised by a single parent. It is these experiences that formed the foundation of my core beliefs, for better or worse. I approach my practice in the same way. The world impacts us, from the womb to the tomb. It is how we traverse the challenges that defines us. I use an eclectic mix of techniques, including solution focused, experiential, trauma informed, and cognitive behavioral, to help my clients better navigate those challenges.

Finding the right practitioner; when it comes to your emotional, mental, and spiritual health needs; can be challenging because you may not know what you should be considering during this search. Select a professional who is not only compassionate and passionate about their work and the people they serve, but also someone who knows the element of strength and perseverance personally. Stress can have a huge impact on the way we function in the various domains of our lives and this can sometimes send us down the rabbit hole of doubt. In order to truly accept yourself you must discover the elements of your becoming.
