I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over 15 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence based therapy. As a Cuban immigrant, I understand the unique challenges faced by ethnically and racially diverse clients. I offer therapy in English and Spanish for individuals, couples, and families across Florida via telehealth, helping you navigate eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.
I am an active, engaged therapist. I do not just sit, listen, and validate without direction. I draw from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to teach concrete skills so you can start creating change right away. I use humor and direct feedback while staying gentle, affirming, and deeply compassionate.
From our first appointment, I focus on building a real connection with you, learning who you are, what matters most, and how I can meet you where you are. If you are new to therapy, I will orient you step by step and move at a pace that feels safe. If you have tried therapy before, we will explore what has not worked and make this time different, using your input to shape treatment so you can move toward a life that truly feels like yours.
