I consider the whole person and their ecosystem, which means I take into account all elements within your world that play an active role in shaping your life, including your emotional and physical health, your relationships, your history, your work, your habits, and your interests, among others.

I would highly recommend Dr. Santos. She has helped me deal with tough situations in my life and come to understandings on my own with her help. She validates my feelings and thoughts and helps me understand why things may be happening the way they are.

Dr. Santos is incredible. She validates your feelings, gives you goals to work on, gives you hope, she is wonderful. I recommend her, as she truly cares for her patients and works with them closely in not just fixing their "problems" but in really giving us the opportunity to learn who we are and why we react in certain ways. Her online sessions are beneficial to anyone who may feel nervous about going in-person, especially during these times. I worried that the virtual environment would feel less personal, but she was so wonderful, I felt like I was sitting right with her. Thank you Dr. Santos!
