I believe in the power of therapy to help you gain clarity, develop coping skills, and build confidence as you face life’s ups and downs.

I work with students who feel like life is moving too fast and expectations are piling up. Maybe you’re stressed about classes, friendships, or future plans, or just feeling unsure of yourself. Therapy is a place to slow down, be heard, and figure out what really matters to you. The people I work with often struggle with stress, self-doubt, or adjusting to big life changes. Together, we explore ways to handle pressure, build confidence, and find balance in your academic and personal life. Sessions are a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts and feelings. You’ll leave with practical strategies and a clearer sense of your own goals and values, so you can navigate college life with more confidence and calm.
By the time people reach out to me, they often feel overwhelmed, stuck, and unable to move forward. Do you struggle with anxiety and fear, constantly on edge, and unable to relax? Do you feel isolated and alone in your experience? Are your relationships suffering, leaving you feeling guilty and ashamed, unsure of how to cope? Are you experiencing uncontrollable nightmares and flashbacks? Many people facing these symptoms of trauma feel hopeless, saying, "I feel like I'm losing myself and need help finding my way back. I'm afraid to talk about it, but I know I need to." Therapy with me begins exactly where you are. I will be your guide, offering support and virtually holding your hand throughout your healing journey. Together, we will: Improve your understanding of trauma and its impact on your thoughts and feelings. Reduce avoidance behaviors and difficulties in experiencing positive emotions. Alleviate distress related to traumatic memories. Decrease feelings of anxiety, anger, guilt, and shame. Enhance your day-to-day living, and improve your relationship with yourself and others. By the end of therapy with me, you'll find relief from past pain, feel calmer and happier, and see improvements in your daily life and relationships. Feeling safe in a therapeutic setting is paramount. As survivors, it’s natural to want to get to know the specialist you’re working with before sharing difficult feelings and your story. I invite you to book a consultation to see if we are the right fit. Let’s embark on this journey together towards healing and transformation.

I take my work very seriously, which means that I strive to take myself very much not-seriously. Some sessions, you may need to cry. Some sessions you may need to laugh. This is a space for healing and growth. The most necessary ingredients for both of these things are warmth and play. My sessions can best be described as an abundance of warmth and play. I hold a Master of Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) from University of Pennsylvania, which I obtained with a focus on positive sexuality and living your best sexual self. I hold a Master of Arts (MA) in Psychological Counseling and a Master of Education (EdM) in Mental Health Counseling from Columbia University, which I earned with a heavy emphasis on applying a social justice and multicultural lens to therapy. While at Columbia, I also received an Advanced Certificate in Sexuality, Women, and Gender with my focus on LGBTQQIA and open/polyamorous clients in therapy.

Whether you are struggling with work, love, family or self – you might be wondering, what will really help? I believe that understanding yourself is a great gift and a power.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years experience conducting Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy (CBT.) Aside from my extensive educational and clinical experience, my work is influenced by my lived experience, as an immigrant, fully fluent in Spanish, first generation college student, and parent to neurodivergent youth. I offer a professional and direct, yet warm and personable style to effectively help my clients, including young and older college students, address the stressors and mental health challenges they are facing, including relationship issues, adjustment disorders, depression, and anxiety. I am also an expert in the early diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorders and have worked with parents and siblings of individuals presenting with ASD, ADHD, and other conditions.
I believe that therapy, with a therapist who can help you feel safe, secure and seen, can restore our inherent joy, curiosity, creativity, and connectedness, which are often impaired or lost altogether as a result of trauma or past attachment wounds. I am a relational therapist and specialize in exploring patterns that come from our families of origin, relationships with ourselves, with our friends, romantic partners, and children, as well as relationships with food and substances. I tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs by incorporating modalities such as Internal Family Systems, psychodynamic psychotherapy, somatic work, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness. Regardless of approach, what is transformative in therapy occurs in the relational dynamic.
