Great to meet you!

I identify as a Gay, male Latino immigrant born in Honduras. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology at Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota, and my master’s degree in Social Work at New York University’s Silver School of Social Work. I have worked as a Psychotherapist for people with Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities (I/DD) and at several Private Practices that offer outpatient services.

My approach to therapy

I help you get back to self-love and acceptance. My approach is a combination of psychodynamic, client-centered, humanistic, CBT, and trauma-sensitive theories through a spiritual lens.

What you can expect from me

My niche or areas of specialty are working with Gay men with co-morbid histories of anxiety/depression and alcoholism/substance-use. I also love working with parents/mothers of people with Developmental Disabilities, as well as Couples therapy. Together we will work towards achieving your treatment goals. With my guidance and experience I look forward to tailoring a solution for your mental health needs.
