I am very excited to be able to provide services and connect with individuals that I could not otherwise thanks to this great medium! I currently practice in South Florida where I work with individuals dealing with interpersonal issues, substance abuse issues as well as relationship problems. I have dealt with families/couples who cannot get along but want to be ale to overcome their issues so that they can be in a happy place again. I also work with individuals who simply want to better themselves in order to reach their highest potential, or feel "stuck" at the current time. Therapy is about growth, self-discovery and feeling like you understand yourself better than when we began so you can make the choices that are best for you. I am culturally diverse, and I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I invite you to contact me so we can work together to reach your goals.
