Prior to pursuing my psychiatry career, I worked as a general physician in primary care, an experience that taught me skills I still use today. Practicing psychiatry since 2012, I have worked with patients with diverse diagnoses, particularly individuals suffering with Eating Disorders. If you are struggling, I would like to help you.

I firmly believe that the mental health of children and adolescents is the primary determinant of their well-being as adults.
I am a native of Puerto Rico and a transplanted New Yorker.

Sinai Medical Center in New York. I have been in CT since 1989, initially as an assistant professor of psychiatry at Yale and director of the Connecticut Mental Health Center's Hispanic Clinic. I subsequently worked extensively as chief of the psychiatric crisis service at Griffin Hospital. I am currently the medical director of the Community Child Guidance Clinic in Manchester, CT.

Are you a teen or parent looking for someone who can help you or your child feel better about themselves at school or home? As both an APRN and psychologist, I specialize in treating children and adolescents with depression, anxiety, learning disorders, ADHD, as well as symptoms associated with autism. Together we will work on a plan to determine which symptoms could be addressed with therapy, psychotropic medication or a behavioral plan; whether academic or psychological testing is indicated, as well as an IEP or 504 plan. Medical concerns influencing mental health can be coordinated with PCP through lab work and consultation.

I believe that the key to effective treatment depends upon a strong collaborative alliance between patient and physician. The difficulties you are experiencing are most likely a combination of physiological and psychological problems.Treatment begins with a comprehensive review of your physical, emotional state and social well being. If you need medication we will discuss the various options. Together we will take into account your unique circumstances and arrive at a personalized treatment plan. Subsequent visits will moniter your response to the medication and help you learn how the medication works.
