Bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker

As a Bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 17 years of clinical experience—and two decades working within school systems—I bring a deep-rooted passion for supporting children, families, and communities through life’s most complex challenges. My work is grounded in cultural humility, trauma-informed care, and a strengths-based approach that honors each client’s story.

Born in Puerto Rico and raised in New York City, I’ve witnessed firsthand the power of resilience in diverse communities. My heritage and lived experiences have shaped my ability to connect meaningfully with clients from all walks of life, creating a safe and inclusive space where they feel seen, heard, and empowered.

I am committed to walking alongside my clients with compassion, clinical expertise, and ethical integrity. Whether addressing emotional and behavioral concerns in children, navigating family dynamics, or supporting caregivers, my goal is to help clients build on their strengths and develop tools for long-term growth and healing. For clients who desire it, I also provide Christian counseling, integrating faith and clinical practice to support the healing process.

Outside the therapy room, I’m a proud wife and mother of three—roles that inspire and ground me. I understand the intricacies of parenting, relationships, and maintaining balance in a demanding world, and I bring that empathy into every session. My Christian faith enriches my values and work ethic, while I remain deeply respectful and welcoming of all beliefs and backgrounds.

It is my honor to be part of the Gathered Connections Counseling team, where we believe in fostering hope, connection, and transformation—one relationship at a time.

Trabajadora Social Clínica Licenciada Bilingüe

Como Trabajadora Social Clínica Licenciada bilingüe, con más de 17 años de experiencia clínica y dos décadas trabajando dentro de sistemas escolares, tengo una profunda pasión por apoyar a niños, familias y comunidades en sus desafíos más complejos. Mi trabajo se basa en la humildad cultural, la atención informada por el trauma y un enfoque centrado en las fortalezas que honra la historia de cada persona.

Nací en Puerto Rico y crecí en la ciudad de Nueva York, donde he sido testigo del poder de la resiliencia en comunidades diversas. Mi herencia y experiencias de vida han moldeado mi capacidad para conectar de manera auténtica con personas de distintos contextos, creando un espacio seguro e inclusivo donde se sientan vistos, escuchados y empoderados.

Estoy comprometida a caminar junto a mis clientes con compasión, pericia clínica e integridad ética. Ya sea atendiendo preocupaciones emocionales y conductuales en niños, navegando dinámicas familiares o apoyando a cuidadores, mi objetivo es ayudar a las personas a fortalecer sus recursos internos y desarrollar herramientas para su crecimiento y sanación a largo plazo. Para quienes lo deseen, también ofrezco consejería cristiana, integrando la fe y la práctica clínica para apoyar el proceso de sanación.

Fuera del espacio terapéutico, soy una orgullosa esposa y madre de tres hijos, roles que me inspiran y me mantienen con los pies en la tierra. Entiendo las complejidades de la crianza, las relaciones y el esfuerzo de mantener el equilibrio en un mundo exigente, y traigo esa empatía a cada sesión. Mi fe cristiana fortalece mis valores y ética de trabajo, mientras mantengo un profundo respeto y apertura hacia todas las creencias y trasfondos.

Es un honor para mí ser parte del equipo de Gathered Connections Counseling, donde creemos en fomentar la esperanza, la conexión y la transformación—una relación a la vez.
