Do you feel driven by your inner critic to the point where "self-compassion" sounds farfetched? Or maybe you know how to be kind to yourself, but struggle to translate that into your belief system? If this sounds like you, I am here to help. I work with adolescents and adults who are tired of low self-esteem, negative body image, anxiety, depression, shame, and chronic stress taking up so much space in their lives. I am passionate about supporting my clients in the ever-valuable process of healing their relationships with themselves.

I am a bilingual and bicultural therapist in the state of New York. I have been seeing clients for over 15 years. Before starting my private practice, I worked with a diverse set of clients in various clinical settings: college counseling, outpatient substance abuse program, crisis call center, and hospitals.
I support young women going through major life transitions such as
starting a relationship or dealing with the breakup, having work-related
stress, climbing the career ladders, becoming an entrepreneur, or getting
through the competitive graduate school.
I also provide support to millennial women who are in various stages of
parenthood journey: dealing with infertility, healing after a miscarriage,
experience anxiety about becoming pregnant or experiencing postpartum
anxiety and depression.

I am bilingual (English/Spanish) and bicultural psychologist with over ten years of experience working with individuals of varying ages and life experiences. I am licensed in New York and California, United States, as well as Ontario, Canada. Many of my clients experience difficulty finding joy or feeling connected to others after experiencing a sudden life change or trauma. Many of my clients are also working professionals who struggle with managing stress in their everyday lives. I am particularly sensitive to clients dealing with symptoms of anxiety, trauma, depression and moments of transition such as breakups, work-related issues and family conflicts. I have specialized training and expertise in trauma.

I am trained in both the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), two evidence-based approaches to couples work. Together, they give me a rich framework for helping couples feel truly heard, have better conversations, and rebuild the connection, friendship, trust, and intimacy that brought them together in the first place, including rediscovering the lightness and fun that can get lost over time.
The same principles that guide my couples work inform my approach with individual clients as well, because how we relate to others is inseparable from how we understand ourselves.

Prior to this, I practiced as a psychiatric nurse practitioner in several psychiatric emergency rooms in NYC.
