Psychotherapy is a place for the the private inner self to speak. This aspect of self has multiple voices and therapy is the place where they may be heard. What otherwise cannot be spoken may in therapy receive understanding. In this unique form of relating otherwise unheard aspects of self are extended a compassionate and intelligent ear. It is this to which I am devoted. Some of the voices that come forth in therapy are those of shame or grief or confusion or hurt or abandonment, deep places of wound and longing. Others may be the voices of lost goodness, misplaced dreams, and feared aspirations. Therapy as heart dialogue listens to the rhythms of these voices while attuning to the potentials for growth, pathways for development, images of unrealized possibilities. Psychotherapy as I practice it is a form of sustained attention to suspended and unheard aspects of self, a venue where rhythms of heart and mind can be explored, a vessel for holding the mystery that is oneself. My training (including extensive post-doctoral levels) is in the multiple traditions of depth psychology. Part of my work in therapy also has included my writing professional papers, having given talks at international conferences, teaching at post-graduate institutes, and having served on the board of editors of several professional journals. I also bring a developed background in mindfulness and contemplative practices. Among other aspects of training, I was a post-doctoral fellow at the Erik Erikson Institute which then was part of the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard. I also was a consultant at the United Nations where I served as a representative, developing and participating in numerous programs. In addition, I am available to those therapists that are moved to deepen their own work with their clients. I shall do all that I can to help you.

My lived experiences as a social worker, mother, law school graduate, and university professor and administrator inform my worldview and clinical approach. My therapeutic approach is person-centered and incorporates a social justice and trauma informed lens to meet clients’ unique needs, identities, and roles. As an Afro-Dominicana, I bring a relational and culturally humble perspective into cultivating an engaged and collaborative approach with my clients. If clients are open, I also integrate contemplative practices such as: 1) mindfulness to explore and reflect on individual, intergenerational, and collective conditioned responses; 2) somatic exercises to interrupt habitual responses and support regulation, and 3) ancestral and acquired lineages to support inner wisdom, belonging, and resilience. I welcome feedback, joy, and celebrations of accomplishments as part of the therapeutic process. I work with all levels of Spanish fluency and capacity, including non-Spanish speakers.

I have been working in the helping field related to counseling for almost 20 years. In that time I have learned that the best way to help others is to be an excellent listener, to be compassionate, empathetic, and to collaborate with individuals to assist them in gaining the tools that they need to make positive change in their lives. I work hard to encourage clients that the strength for change lies within them and my job is to help them find it. I utilize a great deal of mindfulness based techniques and believe that learning the process of becoming more mindful in life can be extremely beneficial to problem solving and learning to sit with discomfort. As a counselor I do not believe that I have all of the answers or can fix anyone, however, I do believe that if the client is willing to do the work to create change in their life that I can assist them in doing so successfully. Ultimately, my goal for the counseling relationship is to assist clients in managing stress more effectively and learning skills that can be used well after the counseling relationship has terminated, in a straightforward and honest approach.

I work with adults who are high-functioning on the outside but experiencing anxiety, stress, depression or emotional exhaustion internally, particularly when these patterns begin to interfere with work, relationships, or overall well-being. Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unable to find lasting balance despite their efforts. After 35 years as a therapist, I bring an integrated understanding of biological and psychosocial factors that influence emotional well-being. My approach is steady, collaborative, and focused on helping clients create meaningful and sustainable change. Support, exploration, learning new skills, and making connections are the essentials for moving forward toward a more balanced life. While in treatment, we will explore modalities that may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy, psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), emotion-focused therapy (EFT), holistic approaches, and the expressive therapies. Opportunities to explore creative outlets and the bodymind techniques.
