Welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor that believes in working collaboratively with her clients to meet goals set forth by the client. The journey to wellness includes validation, empowerment, and a comfortable therapeutic relationship to allow you to grow and reach each goal that you set. I specialize in Cognitive-Behavioral and Solution Focused approaches that allow you to get specific about your goals and empower you to achieve them, however I do not believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy and adjust my approaches according my clients and their therapy goals. My approach is warm and friendly and building the therapeutic alliance is important to me. My Master's Degree is in Human Behavior with a specialization in counseling. I have been a licensed clinician for over 5 years and worked closely with clients suffering from depression, stress/anxiety, self-esteem, and trauma/abuse. I also have experience in regard to substance abuse, life transition, family dynamics, career counseling, and foster care/adoption. No matter what the presenting issues my approach is compassionate and non-judgmental. I believe you are the expert of your life. When I am not working you can find me spending time with my family and our dog. I enjoy being outside whenever possible, to just enjoy the sunshine or go for walks/hikes. I am an avid sports fan and follow the Boston Red Sox and Bruins. My favorite wellness activities include yoga and meditation. The decision to engage in therapy is a huge step toward a happier and healthier life. I look forward to working with you!

I am a Bilingual (English and Spanish speaking) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of clinical experience. I grew up in Bronx, New York and was raised, along with my siblings and a host of extended relatives, by my Honduran parents. Growing up in an immigrant and blended family, including becoming a teen mother and experiencing the effects of my parents’ divorce, has influenced my decision to become a therapist to help people who are experiencing distress, life transitions, and systemic challenges. I have dedicated my life to destigmatizing mental health and creating a safe space for people to be seen, understood, and feel less alone. I provide individual, couple, and family therapy for people of all walks of life. Most of my clients present to therapy seeking support to address issues related to anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship stressors, grief, pregnancy loss, and adjustment to life transitions. Therapy is an effective way to work through unexpected life challenges that can catch us by surprise, roadblocks that can keep us stuck or get in our own way, learn about our past, understand our patterns, our development, and learn new healthy coping skills to help us manage our emotions and live more fulfilling and rewarding lives. I believe change happens when life’s circumstances place a demand on us to shift (i.e., the death of a loved one, loss of employment, divorce, etc.) from one chapter to a new chapter in our lives. Change happens when we accept that change is inevitable, and it is part of the cycle of life. Change occurs when we are open to learning something new that will enhance our quality of life mentally and emotionally, and enable us to become a better version of ourselves.
