About

Even small steps are progress

I am a licensed and board-certified bilingual Art Therapist with 10 years of experience providing comprehensive, culturally sensitive mental health services to diverse populations. My therapeutic practice spans work with adults, couples, and the LGBTQIA+ community, addressing challenges such as social and behavioral issues, attachment and abandonment difficulties, trauma, and various forms of abuse. I am dedicated to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore and heal from these experiences. I hold a Master’s degree in Art Therapy and Creativity Development from Pratt Institute. My approach integrates art as a powerful tool for mindfulness and client-centered therapy, fostering self-expression, healing, and personal growth.
