About me
Life gets difficult sometimes. I help youth and adults in a confidential setting online only. Evening hours are offered 3 days a week and counseling is offered in English and Spanish. I have worked intensively in the areas of Stress, relationship issues, adjustment, trauma, emotional intelligence, depression and anxiety. Talking in a therapeutic setting can help you to become more effective in your personal life, career and in your relationships.
My approach to therapy is an integrative approach in a non-judgmental, compassionate and accountable environment. The focus, techniques, and length of therapy are set depending on the client circumstances, therapeutic needs and the goals of treatment. For some, brief counseling is appropriate, longer term therapy work better for others. Podemos hablar en Español.
Crecí y estudie en Puerto Rico así que puedo proveer terapia en español. I have been providing therapeutic services for over 20 years as a Social-Community Psychologist in Puerto Rico and as a Mental Health Counselor in Orlando, Florida. I am licensed in Florida and Wisconsin. I use cognitive behavioral therapy as well as therapies that include somatic processing. During the first 3 sessions you will be educated about the approach that seem more appropriate to the problems and comfortable to the you. I believe in a gentle approach where we work slowly or fast depending of the tolerance of the client.
