Online Therapy for Parents in New York and Connecticut

I’m Ingrid, a licensed bilingual therapist and mom. I help parents in New York and Connecticut heal how their childhood shows up in their parenting and break generational cycles, in a space that honors their culture and family.

I support millennial and Gen Z moms and parents.

Together, we explore your family history and old wounds so you can show up more intentionally for yourself, your kids, and the people you love.

Credentials and Background Experience:

I completed an accelerated undergraduate and graduate program in Forensic Psychology in 2018, followed by an additional graduate degree in Forensic Mental Health Counseling and an Advanced Certificate in Victimology Studies in 2019.

Shortly after, I was invited to serve as an Adjunct Professor at John Jay College (CUNY), where I shared my expertise with emerging professionals in mental health and criminal justice.

I have extensive training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for individuals and couples through NYCEFT, expanding my skills in attachment-based and trauma-informed relational work. When I am not working with clients, I am supporting students who are just beginning their academic journey to become mental health providers.

How I Got Here:

I grew up in a Puerto Rican household shaped by traditional Christian values, where obedience was praised, emotional struggles were kept private, and therapy wasn’t an option. 

I learned early on to carry pain silently, believing that strength meant hiding what hurt. That pattern followed me into adulthood, affecting my relationships and how I related to myself and others.

My reckoning began when I became a client in my own therapy and welcomed my son earthside in 2022. That experience solidified my commitment to doing relationships differently, both personally and professionally.

It's why I specialize in supporting moms and parents who are breaking generational cycles, healing religious and relational trauma, and building healthier, more intentional connections in their communities.

And Now:

A few favorites, facts and dreams:

→ I love dogs and have always been a dog mom!

→ I enjoy crocheting and painting (when I have the time!)

→ I love reading romance novels (the spicier, the better!)

→ The Wizard of Oz is my all-time favorite movie

→ Traveling to Svalbard to see the northern lights is on my bucket list!

(BTW feel free to send me a message on instagram about anyyy of this!)
