My Background and Approach

My practice is solely Teletherapy which allows for busy women to receive therapy where-ever they are. I use a variety of different treatment modalities to assist my clients accomplish their goals and resolve current problems and heal from past traumas. First, I will help you explore what your stressors and triggers are, and when your the root of the problems started. I'll listen closely, and help you with identifying the life experiences that may have contributed to your current stress and help you focus on how to move forward with your life. Next, I'll teach you about mental health and how to cope with anxiety and depression symptoms. I've worked in a variety of different settings (hospital, day treatment centers, private practice) and have been able to help many women build resilience, learn tools needed to feel empowered, and reduce/eliminate mental health symptoms.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I describe myself as a feminist who thinks women are super-humans who can do anything. But sometimes in all of the hustle and bustle of life, women can neglect their own self-care, self-compassion, and can create or succumb to thought processes that create a barrier to living a balanced wholesome life. And this is where I aim to help women succeed. I'm a spiritual person who believes that with guidance to connect with your mind and body, that you can build resilience and make positive mental changes that will help you with becoming your best self. I'm an LGBTQ ally and I identify as a Black/Latina woman and support the Black Lives Matter movement.
