My desire as a clinician is to help you navigate the challenging times that you might be going through. I firmly believe in and am passionate about helping people. I believe that everyone has the power to change. I would like to help you in this process. I provide counseling to adults, couples and families.
My clinical focus is in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness and Strength based therapy. Each of these therapy modalities will help you work towards positive change and to bring balance back into your life. I treat each person in a caring, respectful and enthusiastic manner. I look forward to meeting and working with you.
I have had the privilege of counseling and guiding English/Spanish Speaking patients for over 25 years. I am familiar with the struggles of the Latino immigrant, such as trying to raise a family and make a life for yourselves in an unfamiliar culture.
I earned my Master Degree in Clinical Social Worker from Boston University in 1994.
I am retired from the U.S. Army Reserves where I served for 21 years working with soldiers and their families during various stages of their deployments.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
