20 years in practice
I am looking forward to assisting anyone in a time of distress.
I am committed to provide a safe environment, through the development of rapport and a high level of trust, where patients can identify personal challenges and achieve their goals. My intention is to help them get a stronger sense of self awareness, rediscover their inner strengths so that they can go from pain/survival to thriving and having a fulfilling life. I have provided services in English and Spanish to groups, adults, adolescents, children and couples.
