I achieved a master’s and doctor’s degree in Clinical Psychology at Carlos Albizu University, San Juan Campus, with honors. Completed my internship at APS Healthcare and from there moved to the Pacific Northwest Coast to complete my Post-Doctoral training practicing behavioral health services in an integrated model within the Primary Care setting, working as a team member of a multidisciplinary team. Two years later I moved to Florida to continue my work in the Primary Care Setting where I focus on the whole person health, and where I started my private practice. I also hold a master’s degree in Clinical Psychopharmacology, from Alliant University in San Diego, California and I’m Certified Clinical Trauma Professional.

I use different approaches to treat my clients, that depend on the client’s personality and needs. Many of the interventions I practice come from the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, also including mindfulness and relaxation skills. I help my clients create resilience and learn skills and strategies that last for life, so they can cope with stressors that life brings, move forward and live healthier lives, while learning to understand how thoughts, behaviors and emotions are connected.
