Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC, LPCC, LCPC, CPL, Registered Member MBACP
Identifying as a member of the LGBT community is not enough in my humble opinion to qualify me to be of assistance to clients. I have invested time and effort attending workshops, and continuing education forums to learn about the vast range of lived experiences which are represented. I do not propose to be an expert in any one person's individual life rather I share a desire of curiosity to know and learn and align with the goals you wish to create to heal and feel better while you know you are in a safe, non-judgmental space to do so.
15 Years Experience
Online in San Juan, Puerto Rico (Online Only)
San Juan's mental health landscape has been profoundly shaped by the trauma and destruction of Hurricane Maria in 2017, and therapists here have developed particular expertise in disaster recovery, grief, and community resilience in the years since. The island's ongoing economic instability, high emigration rates, and political uncertainty create chronic stress and a sense of collective precarity that therapists frequently address alongside individual concerns. Puerto Rico's strong cultural emphasis on family and community means therapists who understand Puerto Rican family systems — including the intersection of cultural pride, migration grief, and multigenerational dynamics — are especially valued. The University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus provides institutional mental health training and resources for the island's clinical community.
