I am licensed in New York with 25 years of professional work experience. I became a NY Mental Health Counselor in 2006 and have been a Licensed Psychologist in Argentina since 1998. I am am bilingual both in Spanish and in English . I provide psychotherapy services to individuals and couples.

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.

Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
