About My Clients
Combined I have over 10 years of experience working in the fields of mental health and social services. My experience spans from working with clients who suffer from depression, anxiety, anger, bipolar disorder, substance use/disorders, grief & loss, incarceration, trauma, abuse, teen issues, self-esteem, and relational issues (family/couples).
My Background and Approach
My strong passion for helping others comes as an instinctive nature and it is what motivates me and continues to be the driving force in my career. I work with my clients collaboratively and place great emphasis on the genuine therapeutic relationship we create together. I work towards creating a space in which my clients feel heard, supported and empowered. Working with me clients can expect an authentic experience in which they feel safe and comfortable speaking on anything and everything. We work towards a deeper understanding of the issues that brought you in while developing a way to manage, and/or overcome them.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Born in the Dominican Republic but raised in New York, I grew up in a very diverse environment. My exposure to various different cultures, ethnicities, populations and styles of living has shaped my appreciation and awareness of all things different in life. I understand the life struggles that many face, having witnessed it in my community, and having endured many family hardships of my own. As an Afro-Latina I am proud of my heritage and strive to instill the same level of pride in others. I value community and feels it is important to educate, up lift, and empower those around me. I am a firm believer in equality and believe everyone should have the same access to a high standard in quality of care.
