With over twenty years of experience in a practice focusing primarily on personal issues and improving relationships, I provide individual, couple, and family therapy, including treatment for depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and I help patients work through a variety of other issues: grief and mourning, family/relationship conflicts, issues around adoption, sexuality and coming out.
I am particularly respectful and sensitive to ethnic-cultural differences; fluent in Spanish and proficient in Portuguese, I previously lived and practiced in Latin America. I believe strongly in a multi-disciplinary approach to therapy, using various techniques and ideas to find what works best for each patient.
Therapy is about providing a safe, non-judgmental space, free from social pressures and prejudices, and labels. I see therapy as a partnership and dialogue between the therapist and the patient, where we tackle challenges and questions together and think and work together to craft answers.
