About My Clients
The therapeutic process, while sometimes uncomfortable and challenging, as self-actualization and healing can be, is a treasured gift for all involved. I believe in togetherness and the power of "we." Together, we will download, process, and heal. Your therapeutic treatment plan and goals are determined by you, as your autonomy is my priority. It is my privilege to walk beside you, mirror your emotionality, and aid in your holistic process of care.
My Background and Approach
As an eclectic therapist, I utilize the approaches that best suit the needs of my clients. I am a firm believer in life-long learning and borrowing best practices. While I am psychodynamically trained and often practice through a psychodynamic lens, my treatment and interventions lend themselves to a person-centered approach. It is my ethical responsibility to provide you with the care that best suits your needs.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a Puerto Rican woman and first generation graduate, I understand the roles that race, class, ethnicity, gender, age, body size and shape play in society. I am an active advocate for children of color in our inner-city schools, who may live at or below the poverty line in shelters and/or transitional housing, and/or foster care. As a former School Director, it was priority to leverage housing, academic, and mental health resources for all of my students. I am a proud supporter of BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, immigrant, sex-worker, kink-positive, and poly- positive communities.
