About me
I am passionate about helping others and being a witness of how a change, no matter how small it is, can have a positive impact in their everyday life.
The desire to open my private practice has been reinforced day by day, realizing how much it fulfills me to be part of the growth and healing process of my clients.

I earned a degree in Psychology from North Carolina State University in 2008 and a masters in Social Work from the same university in 2011. Subsequently, I obtained my clinical license (LCSW) in 2013 after three thousand hours of clinical practice. I have clinical experience with children, adolescents and adults; currently I focus on individual therapy for adults (18+). During the time I worked as a Medical Social Worker, I expanded my knowledge helping patients with chronic diseases (such as asthma, diabetes, depression, among others). This experience allowed me to have a better understanding toward a holistic approach, taking into consideration medical, mental health and community resources needs.
