I offer therapeutic services to adults, couples, young adults, families and children as well as, developmental and psychological assessments, and Pre-Surgical Psychological Screenings for (Transplant recipients and organ donors, Spine surgery, Bariatric surgery, Pain control procedures, Reconstructive procedures and Cosmetic Surgery) in both English and Spanish. As a Bilingual/Bicultural Licensed Clinical Psychologist in Miami Fl, I provide a motivating, insightful and empathic approach while working with my patients. No matter what their reasons are for seeking out treatment, I truly understand the challenging yet uneasy feelings involved when deciding on making a personal and life changing decision such as this one. Although changes and transitions are universal, the way a person interprets and reacts to that change varies greatly.In terms of treatment, I believe early experiences with our parental figures imprint the way we view and relate with others. Therefore, I use an interpersonal, strength based style in which I work collaboratively with the individual throughout the process. I tend to emphasize on personal strengths and restructure unhealthy, self-perpetuating negative cognitions. Additionally, I regard the therapeutic relationship as a vital tool that will assist at identifying important dynamics, in relation to the patient and or the presenting issue. By focusing, aiming, and bringing to awareness the intricacies of their past and how it is revealed by their present dynamics (how they relate with others, how they think of others, how they view themselves, etc.) they may start to understand the complexities of the self and the many shared life roles one partakes in.Everyones journey and therapeutic encounters are different; however, personal growth and healing is what the therapeutic relationship between myself and the patient focuses on, while working on their individualized goals and objectives.
