New to Grow
Hi! I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapy therapist who enjoys providing trauma-focused care to people of all ages, cultures, and backgrounds. I have provided individual, couples and family therapy for over 10 years in New York both in English and Spanish. I am a first generation child of immigrant parents and I also enjoy supporting other first gen clients navigating the complexities of balancing the expectations of both cultures. I also have extensive experience supporting those who are struggling with grief including those who suffered due to a violent crime.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session we would discuss what is currently bringing you to therapy, family history, medical history and overall factors that could be influencing your current concerns. Our first session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and discuss what you would like to accomplish during our time together in therapy.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My focus in therapy is to provide you with warm and affirming care while working together to achieve your goals and improve your day-to-day living.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal client is someone who is need of support in balancing the stress of work, home and/or relationships with loved ones. Relationships with our family, partner, children and/or colleagues can have great influence on your overall health and well-being.

Trauma Informed Care
Most of my work as a therapist has involved helping those who have experienced significant trauma which informs my lens for treatment. My focus is your safety, building trust and individualizing treatment that best fits your needs.
