Hello!

I am a psychotherapist, licensed in New York & Colorado, based in Brooklyn, NYC.

...........................................

All human beings want to be seen, understood, & accepted. Therapy can be a safe & intimate space for such an experience. As a therapist, I believe we all need someone to empower, validate, & actively listen to us in an empathic way, which is what I thrive to do.

​

I help in navigating life transitions and processing emotions, thoughts, and experiences that cause distress. I specialize in anxiety, self-doubt, decision-making, low self-esteem, processing shame and trauma, coping with family trauma, 1st gen. stress, Latinx families, BIPOC experience, and childhood trauma. I have also written the books and guided journals: 12 Ways to Cope With Your Latina Mom & Her Difficulties and 12 Ways to Cope With Your Latino Dad & His Difficulties.

​

I incorporate 3 main modalities: Psychodynamic, Somatic, and Humanistic Psychotherapy.  To learn more about these modalities click below.

 

Lastly, my social work background informs my
anti-oppressive and anti-racist lens. 

And my practice is always trauma-informed—helping folks build their mindful,  somatic, and grounding practices to release trauma and energy.
