Introduction

I am a licensed psychotherapist with more than 20 years of experience. I specialize in anxiety, burnout and trauma and often work with entrepreneurs or individuals in midlife. I have advanced training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, IFS (parts work) & Brainspotting Therapy for trauma. I am a licensed psychotherapist in Puerto Rico and California and received my Masters in Social Work at Columbia University. I am an English-Speaking therapist in Puerto Rico and together we can help you finally process things from the past & heal the parts of you that have been hidden away. Your childhood was rough, so you've learned how to do it all since you couldn't always count on your family. You wanted a different life for yourself, so you've always been an over-achiever to prove to yourself and everyone else that you're different. Since you've got your sh!t together, you're usually the the go-to person for your family, friends, or coworkers. And you're "fine" compared to everyone else, so prioritizing your own mental health almost feels selfish. You've always been good at doing, but just being and feeling is harder for you. Maybe you've tried therapy in the past, but you never felt completely comfortable and couldn't truly open up. You want this time to be different.
