License

  • Clinical Social Work/Therapist
    New York

I am a licensed clinical social worker providing individual therapy via telehealth. I take various insurance plans and specializes in grief, anxiety, loss, depression and life transitions. I use a variety of evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychoanalytical, psychodynamic and DBT techniques. My practice is trauma-informed, and I am dedicated to working with clients of all backgrounds, including Spanish-speaking clients.

My clinical training began at the University of Texas at Austin where I received my Master's in Social Work. I have experience working with clients who are caregivers, who are dealing with chronic disease, such as oncology diagnoses and/or chronic pain. I received a certification from New York University Silver School of Social Work in Trauma-informed care, as well as from the Feeling Good Institute for CBT techniques.

My goal with every client is to provide a supportive space to navigate difficult feelings and thoughts, and learning coping skills that promote overall well-being of every client, on their own terms.
