I has been trained as a psychologist, anthropologist and social worker. Upon coming to NY I've been invested in working in different places and agencies. I've been exposed to most types of emotional/psychological symptoms and conditions that I was comfortable to treat. My main focus is psychological trauma and recovery. I also treat mood disorders, anxiety related disorders among others. I work with families, dyads, children, adults or couples as an Infant Mental Health Provider. Treating Panic Disorders and phobias have been effective as well. Life is worthy, let's find ways to enjoy it.

I also work with couples and children/ adolescents.
I am a bilingual (Spanish), licensed, psychologist, psychoanalyst, in practice on the upper west side of Manhattan and the Riverdale section of the Bronx. I teach, supervise and write. After many years of professional experience I have learnt the simple truth that psychological distress is like being tied up in knots. These knots can make us feel " stuck" in patterns that repeat themselves in intimate relationships. In treatment we identify, understand and work out strategies to loosen their hold on you.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Bronx, NY provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Bronx build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
