If you're used to holding high standards, managing complex responsibilities, and trying to handle everything yourself, reaching out for support can feel like a daunting step. You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone, and therapy doesn't have to be just sitting in a chair and talking about it.
You already possess the inner wisdom needed to heal and grow. My role is to collaborate with you, using evidence-based strategies. Through active, action-oriented therapies, with a creative edge, we'll move beyond talking to see your world from a fresh perspective. I'll be right their along with you, every step of the way.
My clinical practice is built on a diverse foundation of community advocacy, inpatient, and outpatient care. From supporting crime victims and designing enrichment programs for seniors to walking alongside individuals to families facing severe addiction and complex mental health struggles.
Originally born in Panama, I'm fluent in Spanglish! I've called South Florida home since 1995 and earned my Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Florida Atlantic University. As a dedicated, lifelong learner, I continuously refine my craft through specialized training and peer consultation so I can bring the highest standard of care to our work.
When I'm not in the office, I'm living my life fully as an artist, dancer, wife, and dog mom, because life is meant to be felt and experienced, not just talked about.
If you are ready to stop carrying the weight and start actively building a life that feels authentic and fulfilling, I'd love to connect.
