I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in private practice with an extensive background in social work across diverse settings. My work is grounded in compassion, ethical practice, and a deep respect for each person’s unique story.

I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from Sacred Heart University where I received comprehensive training in clinical practice and evidence-based interventions. I have experience working with adults and older adults navigating a wide range of concerns, including dementia, anxiety, burnout, stress, and the everyday ups and downs of life. My background has equipped me to support clients with both complex clinical needs and the challenges that naturally arise across different life stages.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor. If someone in your life makes you feel guilty, confused, unloved, or stressed, I'm here to support you.

I work with courageous people healing from the trauma of toxic relationships and I assist them in developing assertive communication skills & unlocking the power behind setting healthy boundaries. Together, we can reclaim your self-worth and build a life filled with empowerment and resilience.

Starting therapy often means saying things out loud for the first time. You don't have to have the words ready — that's part of the work.

I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life transitions, including the particular strain of rebuilding a life in a new country, holding a family across borders, or carrying a loss that happened somewhere else.

Much of my career has been spent with people on the worst day of their lives. I responded to the 1999 Vargas disaster in Venezuela, and worked with Project Liberty in New York after 9/11, training paramedics, firefighters, and highway police along the way. You do not have to protect me from what happened to you.

I trained first as a psychologist in Venezuela and completed my master's in mental health counseling in New York. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and Connecticut, a National Certified Counselor, and EMDR-certified.

Sessions are available in English and Spanish. Not translated — I work in both.
