About My Clients
I understand that seeking therapy can be a scary step, and I commend you for taking it. I understand that finding the right therapist can be overwhelming. Whether you are struggling with addiction, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, PTSD or any distressing events due to relationship issues, military service, or any major life events or transitions, you do not have to do it alone. I would love be part of your personal journey.
My Background and Approach
In addition to my therapeutic expertise, I am also fluent in Spanish. As a military veteran, I also know how the military lifestyle affects the family. I have extensive experience in addiction counseling, EMDR therapy, and family counseling. As a military veteran, I also know how the military lifestyle affects the family. I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, validated, and understood. While I bring compassion and encouragement into our sessions, I also offer direct and honest feedback when needed to help you gain insight and make meaningful progress. It is my honor to be on your team to help you cultivate a better and more fulfilling future.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone has the opportunity to grow at any time in their lives. I think the main reason we develop mental health issues is due to learned behaviors that we have picked up along the way. My belief and experiences in counseling has showed that we can unlearn the faulty behaviors and replace them with healthy ones. As a child, I suffered from severe anxiety and panic attacks with fear of public speaking. Through my own therapy, I learned how to handle my anxiety and move past it so that it didn't have control over me, and believe that you too can overcome any obstacle or challenge. As a Latino, born and raised in the Bronx, I can understand the unique challenges that some of us can encounter, and as a bonus I also provide therapy in Spanish.
