The therapeutic relationship is the MOST influential factor for therapy success. It makes sense that clients often want to know at least a little bit about who they are working with. Here are some of the official and unofficial highlights that may interest you.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Long Island, NY. I have also lived and worked overseas which was pretty cool. I've been a therapist for 15yrs and a Life Coach for 4yrs. I'm Puerto Rican and a single mom. I'm neurodivergent and so is my little one. I sit on both sides of the desk (don't trust a therapist who hasn't). I've had my own fair share of struggles and I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help others in their process. I first decided I wanted to be a therapist when I was a teenager. I diverted for a bit, but found my way back. I couldn't imagine doing anything else for a living.
My approach is holistic, person-centered, and strengths-focused. I integrate evidence-based treatment strategies. I have worked in various treatment settings addressing mental health, addiction, and trauma related issues. I believe in adapting to the unique needs of each client. My goal is to explore and listen to what doesn't work for you and what does. The goal is to make a real difference for you. I'm not here to waste your time or mine.
