Great to meet you!

After graduating with my masters from Barry University in Miami, Fl, I moved to New York where I have been practicing for the past few years. I am a trauma-informed therapist who works with adults of all ages and stages to help reduce their mental health concerns. I work primarily with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and have a history of trauma. My goal is for my clients to work through their challenges, heal their trauma, and live their best lives.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic style is integrative and eclectic and I work to tailor treatment to my clients' needs and desires. Whether the goal is managing their mental health symptoms, improving self esteem and care, reducing stress, or learning healthier relational/ communication patterns, I am here to help clients gain the necessary tools to succeed and thrive.

What you can expect from me

I work to create a positive and accepting environment for my clients; one that is conducive to growth.

Together, we can work to build skills that empower clients to better their day to day lives and make meaningful and lasting changes.
