Taking that step to engage in therapy can be a challenging task for anyone, especially individuals in the BIPOC community. Feelings of shame and guilt may sometimes overpower your need to seek some form of healing from adverse childhood experiences, inter-generational traumas, and other complexities of life. As a first-generation Afro-Latina and a bilingual Licensed Social Worker, my mission is to dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health and create a safe, judgment-free environment where you can explore your unique challenges through a multicultural lens and become the best version of yourself. I have over 20 years of experience in various hospital and community settings and I’m passionate about helping individuals navigate these challenging times—whether it’s dealing with anxiety, depression, or life’s complex stressors. Together, we can embark on a journey towards healing and self-improvement. Let’s connect and start this transformative process.
