I am an empathic, compassionate, and genuinely invested clinician who wants to empower you to regain a sense of well-being. My goal will be to create a solid therapeutic relationship by providing a supportive, direct, nonjudgmental environment with bits of humor mixed in when we can. Not only will you be able to talk about what's bothering you, but it's also important to know what to do about it! I will help you manage your stressors by teaching coping skills and relaxation techniques that are individualized and using evidence-based approaches. ​ I am a Latina Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 18 years of experience working with clients, ranging from adolescents to adults. I have a Doctorate of Social Work (DSW) from Rutgers University and a Master of Social Work degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
