I believe that the power of vulnerability is one of our greatest strengths and ultimately can provide us with a deeper sense of self, security, comfort, and more compassionate towards one another. Coming from a strength-based form of doing therapy and providing support to others, I work to provide my clients with a sense of validation and comfort. As a cis male that identifies as Latinx and as a proud member of the LGBTQIA community, I am able to hold the experience of living in many diverse, cross-cultural emotional experiences that we sometimes may not even know how to begin to understand.
I offer many modalities of therapy and I have worked with all age groups from children/adolescence, adults, geriatric, groups, and couples as well. I have also worked with not only a range of communities but have worked in community mental health providing intensive case management to clients with severe and persistent mental health illnesses.
I am a very easygoing, open-hearted, direct, and diplomatic presence. I work diligently to build rapport with my clients. My work as an LCSW also makes me interested in social justice work such as working with issues of racism, prejudice, and socioeconomic disparity. I hope to provide an open space that is warm, validating, and safe to my clients.
