Virtual & in-person • 25 mi away • The Bronx, NY


It's very difficult to be in stressful situations that can cause lots of anxiety and self-doubt. Perhaps you're looking for something more than advice from family and friends. If you're looking for a warm and inviting counseling atmosphere, I am eager to work with you to develop effective coping skills and a greater self-awareness to reach your full potential. Together, you and I can work to set goals that are appropriate and attainable for you, at your pace. For therapy to be effective for you, I work hard to build genuine and long lasting trust.


I have experience working with clients who have suffered from anxiety, depression, and marital issues. Additionally, I believe that cultural factors are critical to the way we navigate through life. I work hard to address cultural matters, to understand how these may impact our perception of the world.


Call me for a free consultation where we can discuss your needs and goals. For your convenience, I offer online counseling. También, ofrezco servicios en español. Llamame para discutir tus metas.

As an experienced psychotherapist, I believe that an empathic approach creates an environment, in which, trust and curiosity can flourished, facilitating the adjustment to an already difficult process. The relationship between psychotherapist and patient constitutes an important tool, in the understanding of patient's past and present behaviors.

Psychologist

Virtual & in-person • 22 mi away • Astoria, NY


The core of my work has been to help people find solutions that work, to problems that prevent them from moving forward and living satisfying lives and relationships. I help people who feel stuck, to overcome life’s challenges, regain control of their lives and become the managers of their own self. Over the last 17 years I have been working with adults, teenagers and children from different cultures both in the US and overseas. Through my specialization and experience in severe and persistent mental illness I help people tackle emotional and communication difficulties that interfere with their relationships with friends, family

and the workplace. In my clinical work, I use evidence based psychotherapeutic approaches that have been proven effective through time. In a compassionate, and supportive environment I help people deal with a variety of problems like anxiety, trauma, obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, personality disorders,

emotional, relationship issues and divorce. I have extensive experience working with veterans, college students, substance abuse and LGBD individuals. In addition to individual therapy I do parent consultations for children and teenagers.
