About me
I am an experienced Bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor who is dedicated to helping people cope with anxiety, depression, and trauma.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia and Puerto Rico and have 7 years of experience in the behavioral healthcare field. Currently I am a Bilingual (Spanish) mental health clinician in a detention center working with young immigrants. Before that, I served as MST (Multisystemic) therapist in the community that dealt with juveniles with serious criminal offenses and are possibly abusing substances. I am experienced with the emotional problems that occur in adults, adolescents and children. I have specialized training with family therapy, trauma depression and anxiety.
