I’m a bilingual (Spanish/English) Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience working with adults facing trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, fertility journeys, relationship issues, loss, and burnout. My approach integrates psychodynamic, CBT, mindfulness-based, and relational techniques, with a strong focus on culturally responsive, trauma-informed care.

Throughout my career, I’ve held leadership roles at institutions such as NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell, Columbia University, and other systems, where I provided direct care, supervised clinical teams, and designed trauma-focused programs. In 2020, I was honored to receive the Rape Crisis Professional Award from the New York City Alliance Against Sexual Assault, and I’ve had the privilege of supervising master’s-level social work students throughout my career.

I currently offer telehealth psychotherapy across New York State and welcome referrals for adults seeking a seasoned, compassionate clinician.
