Beatriz completed her Master of Mental Health Counseling at Nova Southeastern University.

I practice adult psychotherapy that appreciates and explores the richness and complexity of interactions between body, mind, soul, and spirit. My therapeutic work aims to help clients not only to get 'unstuck' from current symptoms and problems, but also to 'look forward' to their next stage of self-growth. Working with an integral psychology, I draw upon cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and humanistic-existential treatment modalities but add meditation, guided imagery, and dream work. In addition to seeing individuals and couples, I guide groups on 'care of the soul', loss and grief and spirituality.

I am a firm believer in the philosophy that everyone’s journey is unique, and despite the ups and downs of life, each individual is the experts in their life. Together on our journey we can help navigate and cope with the challenges of life. I have experience using modalities such as Person-Centered approach with the collaborative work from Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, Solution-Focused therapy and Motivational Interviewing, with the hope of supporting individuals in identifying their desires and empowering them to make positive changes.
