Introduction

My goal as your therapist is to help you to free yourself from anxiety, increase your self-confidence, and experience greater joy and fulfillment in your life. I specialize in health anxiety, general anxiety, panic attacks, phobias and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I am an active therapist who not only listens and understands, but also teaches you techniques to more effectively manage your difficulties and achieve your goals. Mental health problems often start out as ways of coping. When something bad happens, you might worry about what else could go wrong. This could lead you to over-prepare, try to control outcomes, and avoid certain situations. Over time, you may lose your ability to relax and enjoy life. I can help you to develop more effective skills and to reclaim your life and connect with what bring you meaning and satisfaction. Please reach out for a free 15-minute consultation. I welcome clients of every ethnicity, cultural background, gender and sexual identity. I practice cultural humility. I work with many LGBTQ+ folks. I have extensive experience working with immigrants - particularly those from Spanish-speaking countries - and first-generation Americans. (Se ofrece la terapia en ingles o en español.)
