As a psychotherapist, I believe that working to understand our struggles in the context of a healing relationship can help us live life with greater wisdom, flexibility, and integrity. I also believe that we are shaped by our relationships, past and present. My work is to address internal conflicts and patterns of suffering that can leave us feeling stuck in our lives and relationships. I aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental space that fosters lasting emotional growth, greater fulfillment, and deeper connection with self and others.

As we move through life, there are many different moments which can make us feel stuck, stifled, or unsure of ourselves and our paths. In these moments, a space in which we can feel heard, supported, and understood is essential. I believe therapy can enable us to explore the roots of these challenges, discover new ways to move forward, and find greater possibilities for ourselves and our relationships. My aim as a therapist is to support you in this process by creating an open, nonjudgmental space to navigate life’s challenges and the full range of emotions that accompany them.

Our lives are woven with stories—the tales inherited from others (relatives, social and professional circles) and the ones we craft for ourselves...and life happens. Juggling familial duties, chronic pain, toxic environments, life or career transitions, the experience of loss, harassment, trauma, or cultural disconnection challenge our inner narrative. It interferes with our ability to mend the threads of our stories, to fully express ourselves and flourish. In my practice, I assist patients in untangling their stories, finding new perspectives/meaning, and actively pursuing aspirations.

In a world that demands so much, we can lose sight of who we are and what we want. We may know we want things to be different but we're not sure how to change them or even perhaps what we want to change. We feel stuck.

I identify as Mexican American (Chicana) and take immense pride in my culture and traditions. I attended Lehman College for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees, graduating in 2011. It was during my time at Lehman College that I discovered my true calling in social work. Previously, I had been studying nursing, but a professor introduced me to social work, and I realized it was the path I was meant to follow. I have always wanted to make a difference and give back to my community, and through social work, I am able to help individuals and families live healthy and fulfilling lives.

I see talk therapy as a vital tool to help us build the lives we want and the world we desire. It’s my pleasure to work with adults and teens seeking a greater sense of purpose, freedom, and joy in daily life, and those looking for a sense of intimacy and trust to anchor their explorations. With patience and warm interest, I invite you to bring your curiosity to bear on whatever lives inside you: anxiety, loneliness, envy, anger, grief, and other inconvenient feelings. When we unearth the parts of ourselves we’ve kept hidden, we can reckon with their powerful undertow and harness their energy to transform our lives for the better.

I strive to create a welcoming and supportive environment that will allow clients to comfortably explore patterns in their behavior, thoughts and relationships that may be causing pain or creating blockages. Many of us have a story that we tell ourselves that explains how we have developed into the person that we are today, but often these narratives may be inaccurate and may be preventing growth or prolonging suffering. I believe that therapy provides a non-judgmental place to interrogate these narratives and gain insight into how these beliefs might impacting our lives.

I work best with people who want to change their lives but feel stuck, confused and paralyzed by fear and anxiety. They feel dishonest with themselves and frustrated for giving up on their true desires. However, deep inside they know they can do better. This struggle is their most intimate enemy. They feel alienated and unhappy sometimes in their relationships, work, profession, and in their daily lives in general. I help them to feel more confident about themselves, motivated to take control over their lives and to make the changes they want to make.

My professional work experience is varied and extensive. I have several years of experience in the fields of mental health, forensic and school social work, and counseling education. The fact that I am fully bilingual in English and Spanish has afforded me the opportunity to successfully reach out to two very different and distinct cultures and ethnicities. I am a firm believer in the potential of the individual to help themselves. I also believe that the body, the mind and the spirit are part of a whole and the individual must achieve a balance amongst the parts in order to heal and become stable.

Today, life often presents us with an unsettling tension between overwhelming uncertainty or loss, and a relentless demand to be productive, happy, and to have a strong sense of identity or purpose. Whether one is exploring psychotherapy due to crisis, impasse, troubling symptoms, or relational concerns, all people can benefit from a space where they can make meaning of their experiences and thoughts in a collaborative way. Though psychodynamic treatment requires vulnerability and curiosity, it is an opportunity for transformative self-exploration and healing that will be contained in a space of attentive listening and care.

Life is full of abundant opportunities that are within your reach. However, there are times when it can feel as though you are watching the world go by from a passenger seat - perhaps you find yourself not acting in your own self-interest or are overloaded by the noise of a cluttered mind. In these moments, it can feel challenging to regain a sense of self and select the most fulfilling path forward. I invite you to co-create a space of holistic healing that fosters self-exploration, allowing you to feel more at home in your mind and body, and continue forward from a place of authenticity and empowerment.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
