Hi! I'm a Spanish-speaking Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. I earned a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico, where I developed a strong foundation in psychological theories, counseling techniques, and practical skills essential for effective therapeutic practice. I have over 6 years of experience providing individual and family therapy, as well as crisis intervention.

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

In our first session, you can expect a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment where you can begin to share your concerns and goals. This session is all about building rapport, establishing trust, and setting the foundation for our therapeutic work together.

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

I have a deep sense of empathy and compassion, which allows me to connect with clients on a personal level. I strive to understand their feelings and perspectives, creating a space where they feel truly heard and supported.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, is a treatment method that focuses on identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts and behaviors while promoting healthier thinking patterns and behaviors. It’s based on the idea that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected, and that changing one can lead to changes in the others. I have extensive experience utilizing CBT in various therapeutic contexts, with children, adolescents, and adults. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, ensuring that the interventions are both effective and appropriate for the client’s developmental stage.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

Person-Centered Therapy is an approach that emphasizes the importance of creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment in which clients feel safe to explore their thoughts and feelings. I have substantial experience utilizing Person-Centered Therapy, particularly in settings where building a strong therapeutic alliance is crucial for the client’s progress. This approach is particularly effective with clients who may have experienced trauma, self-esteem issues, or those who need to feel heard and validated.
