Buenos Aires Therapist in English. Mental Health care for expats and English-speakers.

Psychotherapy

I can be of help in the treatment of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, trauma, phobias, addictive behaviors, and other clinical conditions causing distress and impairment. My approach is collaborative, which means that we create shared understandings, goals, and a treatment plan together. Health and wellness go together, so I support clients in building resources that support thriving and long-term positive effects.

Adjustment & Growth

Beyond mental health issues, I also support individuals facing specific challenges or seeking personal growth. Living abroad presents unique challenges and opportunities for personal development. Whether you’re dealing with stress, adapting to life in Argentina, or looking to grow, I offer informed and sensitive care to help you navigate these experiences.

Couples Counseling

I work with couples, including many bicultural partnerships, to help participants understand each other’s experiences, recognize needs and desires, and build a supportive relationship. Drawing from my own bicultural background, I provide a unique perspective on cultural issues within relationships.

 

Background

Trained both in Argentina (Universidad de Belgrano) and the US (CUNY- NYC and Adams State University, CO.), I adopt an integrative approach that combines tools and resources from various psychological schools, science and philosophy. For the past 22 years, I’ve been fortunate to work  with inspiring colleagues and clients in hospital (NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital in NYC), research (The Research Foundation, Columbia University), and educational (George Washington HS) settings.  Please see the Resume section for detailed information.

Commitment

Therapy is most effective when clients feel safe, understood, and empowered. I am committed to providing quality care and maintaining high standards of privacy and confidentiality. As an ally to all forms of diversity—cultural, ethnic, sexual, religious, and lifestyle—I strive to create a welcoming environment where you can discuss anything important to you.
