I am a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker from the Bronx, NY. I have dedicated my career to reducing the stigma related to mental health and emotional wellness, particularly within communities of color, by offering support, coping techniques, and safe talk spaces for clients. I am extremely passionate about the progression of generations, self-care, family relationships, communication styles and strong self-efficacy.

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

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to discuss basic information about your life today and past experiences. We will formulate a treatment plan and outline an initial 90-day goal plan to help guide our therapy sessions and give us an outline for healing.

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

I am extremely relatable and culturally competent as I grew up in a very diverse neighborhood in NYC. I speak to client in their own language and in a way that feels comfortable. I strive to create a space in sessions where clients can be their authentic selves.
