I am a psychotherapist licensed in Washington DC and Maryland working with children, adolescents and adults. As a graduate of the Psychoanalytic Studies Program at the Washington Baltimore Center for Psychoanalysis, my approach is psychoanalytically oriented and psychodynamic. I believe that developing a narrative of our experience leads to personal growth and a more fulfilled life. We heal by telling our stories through words, play or symbols, in the context of a caring relationship. 

I have been trained in Child Centered Play Therapy, Sand Tray therapy, Theraplay and multiple expressive interventions. I appreciate the transformative power of play throughout the lifespan.  

I have ample experience working with survivors of interpersonal violence, abuse and neglect. I have worked extensively in multicultural settings, dealing with challenges related to migration and acculturation. I am bilingual in English and Spanish.
