I am a bilingual psychologist with over 25 years of experience serving multicultural populations in underserved communities, driven by a deep commitment to social equity, culturally responsive care, education, and advocacy. Currently, I serve as a Health Educator for the Florida Department of Health in Martin County, leading initiatives in injury prevention, age-friendly community development, and chronic disease management. I collaborate with local coalitions and agencies to promote health literacy, safety, and wellness across diverse populations.
My career spans maternal and infant health coordination through the Healthy Start Program, mental health counseling, youth prevention education, and family mediation—each reflecting my dedication to holistic wellness and community empowerment. Prior to relocating to the United States, I held key psychological roles within Honduras’s justice and healthcare systems, including serving as a Family Court Psychologist for the Supreme Court, a Human Resources Psychologist for the National Justice System, and a Clinical Psychologist at San Felipe Hospital.
I hold a master’s degree in advanced leadership and Pastoral ministry Postgraduate Diploma in Total Quality Management and a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras. My professional development includes certifications in CPR and First Aid, Lactation Consultation, Community Health Work, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma-Informed Care, and Mental Health First Aid.
Fluent in English and Spanish, I specialize in cross-cultural communication, individualized treatment planning, and community outreach. I have contributed to international development efforts in Honduras and coordinated translation services in academic and legal settings.
My professional objective is to advance individual and community health outcomes by cultivating psychological resilience, promoting health literacy, and facilitating reasonable access to culturally responsive resources and support systems.
