(she/her)
Born in the Gateway of the amazon, and raised in numerous different countries; I would best be described as a Global Citizen. My unique background has allowed me to understand that individuals don't fit in a box. I have provided psychotherapy to children, adolescents, and adults with a wide range of mental health issues using a variety of techniques, from behavioral to psychoanalytic at practices including The Karen Horney Clinic, Trinitas Regional Medical Center, and Miami Children’s Hospital.
I believe each individual has what it takes to overcome any obstacle and get through what life puts in front of you. Sometimes, we just need help accessing our inner wisdom and unique strengths, as well as the opportunity to learn new skills and different ways of approaching problems in a caring environment. I strive to provide an environment where you can safely identify and explore issues that may be getting in the way of a more rewarding life or more fulfilling relationships.
My approach to therapy and counseling is integrative. This means that I draw from several different types of therapy to find what will best meet your needs I have extensive training in Trauma Focused CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Psychoanalysis.
