Accepting Clients

Understanding trauma & anxiety comes from more than just the words we speak. If simply talking it out isn't working, I will listen and help.

About My Clients

We can practice mindfulness, mind-body exercises, and creative approaches to work on, not just talking, but embodying the change you want to see. With EMDR therapy, we can work towards reclaiming your present life from past experiences that keep you feeling stuck. To feel more fulfilled, IFS (aka Parts Work) can strengthen your sense of self.

My Background and Approach

Born in Puerto Rico and raised in Pennsylvania, I understand the importance a bilingual professional can be to many Latinos. Spanish, English, Spanglish...it all works here! Not Latino but need someone who understands cultural issues you've been dealing with? I'm here for that, too. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, identity, self-esteem, and cultural issues. Teens, Gen Z, millennials, and families are welcome.
