I migrated to the U.S. over 20 years ago to find my ‘American Dream’. It didn’t take me long to find it. I always wanted to help people. In 2002, I graduated with a masters degree in Art Therapy & MH Counseling. Since then, I’ve been working with children and families throughout the western MA region for nearly 19 years & now in FL. I started my own private practice in 2014 and have not looked back. I have extensive experience with children and families.
