MSW, LICSWA, SC61330165

Get to know me:

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate.  I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology from the Inter-American University of San German, Puerto Rico in 1996.  After graduation I traveled to Hawai`i where I received my Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Hawai`i -Manoa in 2002.  During my time in Hawai`i, I was fortunate to learn about other cultures and work one on one with diverse populations involved with the child welfare system. These experiences helped to develop my understanding of cultural diversity and provided me with opportunities to help advocate and support the children and families I worked with.

What struggles am I most skilled at addressing as a mental health professional? 

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Stress​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
• Trauma
• Life Transitions
• Self-Esteem/Self-worth challenges

What populations do I work with?

 I work remotely via telehealth with adolescents and adults.

What is my approach to healing?

I follow a generalist social work approach.  Ways that I do this include using a person-centered approach, trauma-informed approaches, and client focused interventions. My goal is to help empower my clients to recognize their potential for change. I truly look forward to helping you find the change you desire in your life.
