If you are carrying anxiety that keeps your mind racing, depression that dims your days, or the heavy weight of grief, caregiving, or family conflict, you do not have to navigate it alone. Major transitions, substance use struggles, and emotional burnout can leave you feeling disconnected from the life you want. As a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist, I provide a compassionate space to help you make sense of these complex seasons. Whether you are facing daily stress, significant loss, or relationship challenges, we can work together to restore balance, heal old patterns, and help you feel like yourself again.

My specialties include trauma, relationships, supervision, and medical issues. I will help you be more conscious of your thoughts, emotions, and body and thus reach your potential.


My previous education in biology and neuropsychology has provided me with knowledge that is invaluable, especially during trauma work. Because I find both Eastern and Western psychological practices useful, I integrate many tools and therapies into the sessions and tailor treatment to each individual.

Hi, I'm Diana — a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with individuals and families, including older adults, navigating anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, and life transitions. My background spans schools, foster care, supportive housing for youth, and outpatient mental health across New York and Florida. I know how hard it can be to find a therapist who truly understands your culture, your language, and the pressures you carry — whether that's family expectations, being the one everyone else leans on, health changes, caregiving, or figuring out who you are apart from everyone else's needs. Many of the people I work with are holding it together for everyone around them while quietly running on empty. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are and feel understood, in whichever language feels most like home.
