Hi! I’m Dr. Reyes—it’s a pleasure to meet you.
I have extensive clinical experience providing therapy in hospital, community mental health, and college counseling settings. Over the past 14 years of research, scholarship, and clinical practice in mental health care, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people from many different walks of life as they navigate a wide range of mental health concerns and life experiences.
Before becoming a psychologist, I worked in corporate settings after completing a BA in Public Relations from Temple University. That experience gave me firsthand insight into the pressures of high-demand workplaces and the impact they can have on mental health and well-being. As a Black female therapist and former corporate professional, I bring both expertise and lived perspective to my practice, creating a safe, collaborative, and affirming space for clients from diverse backgrounds.
I have a PhD in Counseling Psychology from Teachers College, Columbia University, and an MA in Psychology from LIU-Brooklyn. As a pre-licensed psychologist, I currently offer therapy in private practice under supervision while completing post-graduate licensure.
My Approach
Therapy with me is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from interpersonal therapy, psychodynamic therapy, CBT, and DBT approaches to support both deep insight and meaningful, actionable change. This means we’ll explore how your past relationships and experiences shape your present, while also building practical strategies and tools to help you move forward with clarity and confidence in your everyday life. I also utilize my advanced experience in DBT to help clients manage emotions, reduce distress, and build healthier relationships.
