I am a bilingual New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing telehealth psychotherapy in English and Spanish. My background includes outpatient community mental health, work with anxiety, depression, trauma-related stress, family and relationship concerns, and support for clients navigating complex life systems. I aim to offer therapy that is practical, collaborative, and grounded in each client’s lived experience.
I see therapy as a collaborative process. You bring your lived experience, goals, and perspective; I bring clinical tools, structure, and support. Together, we look at what is not working, try strategies, and adjust over time to build coping systems that fit your life rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all approach. My work draws from CBT, psychodynamic therapy, supportive counseling, and skills-based interventions, with attention to both insight and practical change.
In the first session, we will focus on getting a clear picture of what brings you to therapy, what you hope will change, your rights in treatment, and what support has or has not worked for you before. I will ask questions about your symptoms, stressors, history, strengths, and goals, while also making space for you to share at your own pace. By the end, we will begin identifying priorities for treatment and what a helpful direction for therapy may look like.
