LIZ
I am a Latina – from Dominican Republic who is extraordinarily proud of my heritage.
I am a mother, daughter, sister and friend, who embraces the value of family.
I am bi-lingual-Spanish, licensed psychotherapist, who has spent over 20yrs working in the mental health and substance abuse fields helping people of all ages, social and financial status, identify coping skills and manage daily stress with the goal of finding emotional wellbeing and overall satisfaction with their lives. My previous career as a law enforcement officer helped bring a unique perspective to my social work career with insights that I would not have otherwise had.
I am a Cancer survivor and I value every day and find strength in my wide network of supports and today I am stronger emotionally then I will ever be! I am the master of my fate, the captain of my soul!
Join us me on this journey with the Ladies of Èl Sálon Chronicles!

I’m a Dominican York from Hamilton Heights. Soy hija de inmigrantes, mother of 3 three multiracial children, partner to an amazing Haitian man, and I run a multicultural language department for NYS.
No soy de aquí and I’m not from there, I am both and neither.
Culture, growth, kindness, accountability, honesty, and healing is important to me and the reason why I’ve chosen to host Èl Sálon.
Join me on my journey.
