I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, in NJ and CA. Bilingual in English/Spanish. I started my clinical practice as a Clinical Psychologist in Argentina in 1995.

I have completed advanced training at The Immigration Evaluation Institute and the Immigration Evaluation Training Center. I am a trained EMDR and EFT trauma therapist. I am Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. As a bilingual immigrant myself, I can relate to the difficulties that arise from cultural transitions.
