I am a therapist working for over 20 years, internationally (Mexico) and in the USA with adults and have extensive experience in treating mood and anxiety disorders; trauma recovery; PTSD; mental health and HIV; substance abuse/dual diagnosis; acculturation/transcultural issues, and ADHD.

I attended Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana in Mexico City earning a Bachelor of Sciences degree in Child/Educational Psychology and I received a master’s in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University (NH campus) in 2003. I have experience in primary care behavioral health, private practice therapy, inpatient work with substance abuse population, and crisis intervention.

People and colleagues tend to describe me as open, calming, empathic, and a fearless advocate of my clients.
