I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am from Costa Rica and now here I am in Texas. Can't wait to be done with studies and begin my private practice here at the Dallas/Fort Worth area. I worked as a Psychotherapist for 9 years in my home country, treating children, adults, families and couples. Now I will have a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy. Since my native language is Spanish, my main goal is to work with the broad Hispanic population in Texas.

My Interests

Going to the gym is something I enjoy much. I also like to read, watch HGTV, look for stuff on the internet, studying is my strength. Chat with my children on the internet. Going to the movies. I LIKE DANCING BUT HUBBY DOES NOT LIKE IT MUCH. HERE WE WERE AT HOME IN SWEDEN DANCING SINATRA.
