As the founder of Voice & Value Psychotherapy PC, I offer bilingual (English/Spanish) therapy grounded in warmth, respect, and cultural humility. I hold a Doctorate in Psychology and am a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey, with clinical experience spanning trauma, chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and the stressors that come with navigating identity, acculturation, and belonging.

My doctoral research focused on acculturation stress and discrimination within Latine communities, and that lens continues to shape how I understand the ways culture, environment, and lived experience shape mental health. I work with adults seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and the weight of stressors that often go unspoken. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and never judged.

As a board-certified Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor and Licensed Social Worker, I believe it is imperative to treat co-occurring diagnosis simultaneously. Reaching out for help can be difficult, so congratulations for taking the first step! I've worked primarily in the field of addiction for six years, licensed for four. In the last year, I have shifted my focus on mental health and working with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety and depression.

I started my journey in social work nearly 20 years ago, after serving in the military and utilizing my GI Bill to fund my education. My career has taken me through some incredibly challenging environments: from jails to supporting homeless families, and working closely with individuals battling addiction or navigating severe mental health crises.

Through every experience, I've consistently witnessed something profound: the unwavering hope, incredible resilience, and fierce dedication people possess to fight for and reclaim the lives they envision. This deep understanding of human strength, even in the most difficult circumstances, is what I bring to every session.
