| español Licensed as a Clinical Psychologist in Illinois and registered to provide telehealth psychotherapy to clients in the state of Florida (www.flhealthsource.gov/telehealth/). If you are having difficulties adjusting to any of the many challenges of life, feel stuck in your current situation, or feel dissatisfied with your relationships or quality of life, I can help. I have experience and expertise treating depressive and anxiety disorders, trauma including PTSD, ADHD, and the emotional effects of chronic illnesses, burnout, and immigration.
I am a bilingual (Spanish/English) Board Certified Clinical Psychologist with 20 years of practice in the field. My diverse professional experiences have given me the opportunity to work with a wide range of ages, cultural backgrounds, disabilities/abilities, sexual orientations, medical conditions, and mental health concerns.
I have integrated different evidence-based theories and techniques to serve clients with a practical approach based on each individual's needs and background. My goal is to build a trusting relationship, so we can engage in a collaborative process geared towards self-discovery, personal growth, conflict resolution, and improvement of overall quality of life.
