Welcome to Casa Sana Therapy

About Me

I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with a master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from Columbia University. I’m a proud Puerto Rican therapist, born and raised in New York City, and deeply committed to creating inclusive, affirming spaces for healing—especially for communities that have been historically marginalized.

With nearly a decade of experience working in schools and mental health, I bring a grounded, trauma-informed, and relational approach to therapy. My work is rooted in social justice, emotional wellness, and the belief that everyone deserves to feel safe, seen, and supported.

Whether you're navigating life transitions, identity exploration, grief, anxiety, or simply seeking a deeper connection with yourself, I’m here to walk alongside you in that process. Outside the therapy space, I’m an avid traveler who finds inspiration in new cultures, people, and perspectives.

I believe healing is not one-size-fits-all. My goal is to co-create a space with you that honors your unique voice, values, and path forward.

Hope and Healing with Casa Sana Therapy

My Story

I became a therapist because I believe in the power of being seen, heard, and held—especially in a world that too often tells us to shrink ourselves or carry our pain in silence. I am passionate about helping others not just survive but thrive.

As a Puerto Rican woman raised in the Bronx, I witnessed firsthand the impact of generational trauma, systemic injustice, and emotional resilience within my own community. I was drawn to this work by a deep desire to support others in breaking cycles, reclaiming their power, and finding healing on their own terms.

Therapy, to me, is not about fixing people—it's about walking beside them as they rediscover their voice, their strength, and their capacity to thrive. Holding space for that transformation is not just my profession—it’s my calling.

Specialties

I specialize in working with adults from all walks of life particularly clients from diverse backgrounds, particularly Latinx, Black, POC, LGBTQIA+, neurodiverse, poly, and marginalized communities, in fostering deeper connection and resilience.

I am someone who values learning opportunities and have earned certificates in TF-CBT, Integrative Sex and Couples Therapy, and more!

My ideal client is someone seeking a safe, supportive space to navigate life’s challenges. They may struggle with relationship dynamics, mental health, sexual well-being, or life transitions but they are ready to embark on a journey towards wellness. Their goal is healing, growth, and self-empowerment—whether individually or with loved ones.

Approach

My therapeutic approach is integrative, meaning I draw from a variety of evidence-based techniques and tailor my approach to each client's unique needs. Using a social justice, anti-oppressive, strengths-based, and trauma-informed approach. My goal is to create a judgment-free, inclusive space where you feel heard and supported.
