What I'm looking for

I seek roles delivering evidence-based, culturally sensitive therapy in multilingual settings, with opportunities to work in schools, clinical services, or telehealth and to contribute to multicultural mental health programs.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist credentialed in Finland and Colombia with a master's in clinical and health psychology and ongoing graduate studies in social psychology. I provide evidence-based therapy—cognitive, cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment approaches—to adults and young adults, with experience treating anxiety, depression, sleep problems, learning difficulties, and challenges related to cultural integration.

I offer culturally sensitive, multilingual services in English, Spanish, and Finnish, and have worked across school, clinical, online, and correctional settings. My experience includes school psychology in Helsinki, telehealth counseling, internships in clinical-health psychology, and program work in multicultural integration and suicide prevention; I prioritize safe therapeutic spaces and practical outcomes.
