I am a psychotherapist graduated from New York University and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience in the field. In addition, I have incorporated to my therapeutic practice novel approaches of Mindfulness from Cambridge Health Alliance and Coaching from McLean IOC Institute of Coaching both affiliated of Harvard Medical School. I encounter these modalities to be an interesting complement to traditional psychotherapy approaches and a powerful tool for realization and to enhance personal growth. I strive to create a warm, compassionate and non-judgmental environment participating actively in the therapeutic relationship to encourage self-exploration and understanding in alleviating a variety of emotional conditions including depression, panic/anxiety, trauma, stress work-related and relationship issues, career concerns in a confidential space. My approach stresses the therapeutic relationship as a central vehicle for transformation subsuming empathy, positive regards and genuineness. As a bicultural psychotherapist, I tailor treatment based on each individual needs to overcome barriers in order to achieve a full and productive life experience.
