Greetings! In searching for a therapist you seek someone who is capable of listening to you and truly hearing. It is essential that your therapist is able to understand your 'starting point' in order to help you pursue your personal and relationship objectives. It is my honor to assist you. In my profession it is rare to find a therapist who has remained in face-to-face counseling for the duration of his/her career. With gratitude I can say God has blessed me as a counselor bringing help to many hurting and dismayed individuals, couples and families.

Therapy begins when we are ready to make a change. Pain and compassion are the forces that motivate us to grow. What worked well enough in the past no longer satisfies. Old habits, wounds, defenses, and fears have protected us, while holding us back. We’re seeing this now, after a long time. We want more peace, joy, purpose, love, connection, wisdom, and energy. We want to be more alive and engaged, even if that means facing what has been avoided and leaving the familiar behind. Changing has its risks and rewards, as does remaining where we are. The end of suffering is through the pain, to find the treasures beyond it.

My style for a 15-year-old Asian female would be different than that of a 70-year-old Hispanic

Hi there, I'm Blake, a licensed clinical social worker. I've helped people with many issues like anxiety, depression, personality disorders, grief, divorce, severe mental diagnoses, and many more. I am trained in many different therapies and tailor a plan to each patient, rather than tailoring a patient to a plan. In my view, people used to mostly lived in close-knit communities, which has eroded with the advances in transportation and technology. Most people have lost the social support our forebearers had. Mental Health Professionals have taken on this role and are an excellent resource to improve your well-being.

As a Queer Latinx cis-gendered-

therapist of color, I am proud to be a representative of my often-marginalized communities.
Are you currently searching for a sense of meaning and purpose in your life? Do you find yourself in an existential/spiritual emergency? Are you exploring your personal identity, expression, or sexuality? I help people of all ages increase self-awareness and decrease symptomology by bringing unconscious material into conscious awareness. Mental health concerns eventually arise because deep in our mind/body/soul we yearn for authenticity/individuation. Together we can explore which aspects of ourselves that no longer serve us to let go, in order to make space for something new to enter.

I also love working with
male
adults to help them manage stress, decrease depression and anxiety and give them an unbiased, non-judgmental space to share the heavy thoughts they've been carrying around.
I am currently accepting new clients for both in-person and online therapy. My ideal clients are kiddos, ages 3-18 as well as
male
adults. In my 5+ years working with kids I've helped them overcome anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, bullying and increased their self-esteem. We start by increasing your child's ability to label their emotions, once they have a grasp on that, we move towards promoting their self-awareness of when their negative emotions come up. We then give them skills to replace those negative emotions with positive emotions as well as teach you, their parents, how you can support them in the process.
