I am a Clinical Mental Health Counselor/National Certified Counselor licensed in Puerto Rico and North Carolina, USA. I have 12+ years of experience working with individuals, couple's and families using a variety of theoretical perspectives in individual, family, and group therapy sessions.  

My approach to therapy is primarily psychodynamic in nature. In my practice I take the time to listen closely to your needs and tailor our sessions to meet you where you currently are. Through our work together we will move towards greater understanding of your past and its impact on your life today, this depth of work allows for greater self acceptance and more control over the decisions you make in your life. Our sessions will be spent working to increase your self awareness while strengthening your capacity to fully engage with the world. Together we will expand your window of tolerance by unpacking the feelings and thoughts that bring you discomfort, leading to a more authentic and comprehensive experience of yourself.

You were born to enjoy satisfaction, to handle problems effectively and feel optimistic. To get back on track, please take a moment to browse through my website. Then, to arrange your initial session, call my office at 787-974-2543 or send me an e-mail to [email protected]. I’ll get back to you promptly; we can discuss fees and other practical terms of service, and schedule a time for you.

I look forward to meeting you and working together.
