Hi and Hola, I am a Latina Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of experience working with adolescents, families, young adults and older adults in a variety of settings including schools, health care and community based organizations. I earned my Masters in Social Work from Lehman College. I support individuals affected by anxiety, depression, grief/loss, coming out, low self-esteem, interpersonal relationship conflicts, stress and trauma. My primary focus is to empower and equip you with the tools necessary to live a life full of purpose and authenticity. I use a strengths-based approach and my therapeutic style is eclectic, integrating modalities from CBT, ACT and DBT. I incorporate mind-body techniques that will help you feel safe in your body as an important part of your healing journey. I am here to help you cultivate mindful practices that will increase your self-awareness, self-efficacy and self-care. As your therapist you can expect transparency, consistency, humor and creativity. While you are the expert of your life, I am here to help you take the first steps towards prioritizing your mental wellness.
