Hello! I am a bilingual (Spanish) speaking therapist with over 20 years experience. I am licensed in the state of New Jersey and Florida. I love working with adolescents and young adults. I also have extensive experience working with the elderly. I always like to meet my clients where they are and trying to provided a safe environment for them to meet their goals.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, the client can expect for me to provide a safe space for them and to get to know them on a personal level. I am always open to sharing my professional background and any questions or concerns the client may have. During the first session, they can expect many questions from me so I can better understand how to help them. I am also always open to answering any questions a client may have about me or therapy itself.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I feel my greatest strengths are building a strong rapport with my clients so they feel safe. I enjoy being a good listener and providing tangible goals for my clients. I believe my years in working in the field has provided me a solid background to assist people of all different types of issues and complex problems which arise at times with life and aging.
