About

Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’ve been on this path before, I understand how stressful, and even overwhelming, it can feel to begin the process. Finding the right therapist is deeply personal, and it takes courage to take that first step.

What I offer is a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are. Here, no concern is “too small” or “too much.” Together, we will explore what brings you here, identify the patterns that may be getting in your way, and create a plan that supports your healing and growth. Therapy with me is a collaborative process where we walk this path together.

I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Registered Play Therapist with over 23 years of experience serving diverse communities across the lifespan. As a Columbia University graduate with advanced executive training from Harvard University, I bring a depth of academic rigor and real-world expertise to my work.

My clinical experience spans individuals ages 4 through older adulthood, addressing a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges from adjustment-related stress to severe and persistent mental health conditions and trauma. I specialize in trauma, and helping clients build practical, empowering coping skills they can rely on long after therapy ends. Some of the most meaningful moments in my career have been witnessing the profound transformations of trauma survivors. Their resilience continues to inspire my work every day.

My master’s and doctoral dissertation research focused on trauma and resilience, and I remain deeply committed to supporting both children and adults who have experienced overwhelming or life-altering events. If you’re ready to explore how therapy can support you or even if you’re just curious, reach out. I would be honored to talk with you about how I can help.
