Experienced psychotherapist and Clinical Sexologist. I have developed expertise in Cognitive Behavioral and DBT therapy approaches which I utilize in my work with clients of all ages, backgrounds, and presenting concerns.
I have experience working with Domestic Violence and also I was in charge of a program to protect elderly victims of abuse. In my experience I also worked as a Clinical Manager for the elderly program of an important mental health agency in Miami and provided services to the elderly that suffered from a variety of mental disorders.
I am adjunct professor of psychology at Miami Dade College currently for the Independent Study program and also worked actively teaching regular classes of psychology.
My clients ask many questions and have concerns regarding seeking help. For example
What can Psychotherapy do for me? I am not crazy? These are two common questions that have a simple answer: we all need help, we need an expert that can listen and guide us through difficult times.
My goal in therapy is to educate the client in the psychological aspects of life, I believe in training you to handle your own life, you are the expert and owner of your life and I am just a tool to help you . With what you learn you will be able to help others.
