​about me

I started my academic training with a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Engineering at the Universidad de Los Andes in Bogota, Colombia. By the middle of this program, I became even more aware of my true calling, and after fulfilling all the requirements for the special double career/degree program offered by this university, I pursued at the same time a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology.

Each degree provided me with completely different skills, analytical and human. When combined, these skills generate a unique and complete combination and approach that enable me to help others understand and effectively solve any situation in diverse scenarios and from different perspectives.

After graduating, I worked as a professional engineer for a few years at the Central Bank of Colombia (Banco de la Republica). However, knowing and strongly feeling psychology was my passion, I decided to take the path of clinical psychology by earning a Master's degree in Health Psychology, along with all the requirements from the Master's in Counseling program to become a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) from Texas State University. I have held this license since 2006, and became an LPC-Supervisor in 2008. I have been supervising LPC- Interns since that time. 
​
After working closely with neglected and abused children and their families at different settings and from different positions for almost 5 years, I decided to move into private practice.
​
​In October of 2019, I obtained my certification as a Registered Play Therapist (RPT), and I am currently working on neurolinguistic training.
​

I follow a holistic approach where mind, body, and spirit are interconnected; as a result, the individual is seen as a whole and each treatment is individually designed to address each person’s specific needs.​

"Every human life contains a potential, if that potential is not fulfilled, then that life was wasted."

INNER WISDOM

"Do not compare, do not measure. No other way is like yours. All other ways deceive and tempt you. You must fulfill the way that is in you."
