If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just trying to find your footing during a difficult season of life, I want you to know you don't have to navigate it alone.

My own story began in the Dominican Republic, and I was raised in the heart of the Bronx, NY. Growing up between two distinct worlds gave me a deep appreciation for culture, identity, and the unique stories we all carry. Because of this, I am proud to offer a completely bilingual space, holding therapy sessions in both English and Spanish.

With over 10 years of experience as a therapist, my main goal is to make sure you feel seen, safe, and truly understood. I don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach to mental health. Instead, we work together to help you find balance, heal from the past, and build a life that feels genuinely good to live.

I knew I wanted to be a therapist when I saw several movies with therapist as the main character.

I believe change happens when we all work together to help each other.

Clients who get the most out of therapy with me are clients with variety of different issues and concerns.

Three words that describe my style are cultural competency, empathy and effective listening skills.

Something about me that is unique is I have ran several 10K and 5K races and running is a hobby and passion of mine.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Newark, DE

Searching for therapists in Newark starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and work stress. As you compare therapists in Newark, DE, look for someone whose listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Newark has a smaller local therapy market than larger metro areas, so virtual appointments can expand your options while still keeping care connected to Delaware. You may prefer an in-person office near areas like Chestnut Hill, Laird, or Elkton Pike, or you may want the flexibility of virtual sessions from home. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each therapist’s style, session structure, and communication approach.

Therapy in Newark can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for licensed Delaware therapists, verify your insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly with therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse therapists, compare profiles, and choose a time when you’re ready.
