As a Latina, mother of boys, a wife, and the eldest daughter, I can relate to the challenges of staying connected to our culture while attempting to merge with the American Culture. I have worked in the mental health field for over 23 years where I provided an array of clinical services; including behavioral, humanistic, crisis interventions, and psychodynamic techniques. My practice is rooted in many theories, so I exercise a holistic approach. I believe that every individual is unique and there is no one way to treat our healing process since we all come with some sort of baggage, battle wounds and scars.

My name is Mark Perez, LCSW 91261. My approach to therapy is straightforward in a compassionate, and empathic way. I also enjoy using laughter when topics become heavy. My therapeutic approach is working with strengths-based and problem-solving techniques, but it really depends on the situation the client is working with. My focus is broad I enjoy working with teenagers to the elderly. I enjoy listening to the stories and looking at the faces of the people I'm working with. It tells me a lot about who they are and how their issue has affected them.

Hello, and welcome. I have enjoyed working with individuals and families located in the San Jose Bay Area since 2019, in the area of neurodiversity, blended families, and coparenting. As well as individuals experiencing impulsivity, anxiety, boundary setting, and pleasure-seeking behaviors. I use a strength-based approach and tailor this approach to the specific needs and goals of my clients, and I realize that no one approach is an answer for everyone. Additionally, I have experience as a first responder and can understand the challenges involved in these professions.

Pick me! Pick me! :-) Hi, I'm Adrian. I'm in person and local in San Jose. I absolutely love this work and, with over 20 years of experience, I am still energized by it. Many of my clients tried just about everything before deciding that therapy was their best solution. Making changes in our lives and getting clear on what we need to change can be very difficult.

Welcome! You’re here because you’re ready to explore what’s next and find a more authentic, satisfying way forward. As a high-achieving professional, you may feel a longing for deeper meaning and balance despite reaching impressive financial goals. As a driven individual, there may be a nagging sense of untapped potential. Perhaps you’re navigating cross-cultural transitions, relational challenges, or a career path that no longer feels rewarding. Balancing family with career ambitions or stepping into new leadership roles can also feel overwhelming.

If you are someone who feels lost, alone, overwhelmed, or stuck, I am here. If you are someone who wants to explore their sense of self, identity, relationships, or sexual orientation, I am here. If you are someone attempting to enhance your self-compassion and connect to your true self, I am here.

Martin Luther King, Jr. said it best, "Out of a mountain of despair, a stone of hope." Challenges in life are inevitable and at times, there are challenges that seem larger than our ability to manage them. Issues such as depression, anxiety; healing from previous trauma, and abuse are areas that can grip us and prevent us from living our best lives.
