A message to you:

I believe that the purpose of therapy is to supply others with guidance towards developing tools and skills that allow them to ultimately set themselves free. I am here to offer support in helping you achieve your goals, meeting you where you are, and providing you with a comfortable non-judgmental space that would allow to open up.

My hope is to connect with individuals, create a space that normalizes expressing feelings and assist in helping them through life transitions, others develop a plan towards reaching new goals, & be the bridge to their personal growth journey.

I have a background in mindfulness & yoga that is often implemented in my practice through connection with the mind and body including several breath-work techniques. I work with individuals, couples & groups.

I have focused much of my experience working with several areas of concern and populations including but not limited to LGBTQ, Latinx, Teens/Adolescents, Couples, topics of Intimacy & Relationships, Anxiety, and Depression.

Jonathan Rojas, Registered Marriage and Family Intern, NSU Ph.D. Candidate in Family Therapy

A message to you:

I work with my clients to help them repair and nurture the relationships they have with their loved ones. Though I am trained in treating couples and families, my therapy also values a focus on the individual. I find it important to promote a balance between rational and emotional orientations to our experiences, and I help my clients to reflect this balance in multiple facets of their lives.

I specialize in therapy for men. Much of my personal and academic research focuses on traditional and contemporary views of masculinity and how these perspectives can shape the experience of being male.

I invite you to consider psychotherapy as a unique opportunity to understand yourself from a perspective that honors the life circumstances you have experienced. I can work with you to help identify possibilities for positive change and support you on a path of growth.

I help individuals, couples, and families to cope with, adapt to, and overcome difficulties in their lives by working with them to develop the necessary skills and mindset necessary to create positive change.

Ricardo Almonte, Licensed Mental Health Counselor

A message to you:

I am clinically trained to work with individuals experiencing a variety of different issues, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD and men's issues. During the therapeutic process we explore thoughts and behaviors that impact the client's mood, lifestyle, and help develop appropriate skills to improve daily experiences.

Psychotherapy is a great opportunity to gain self-understanding and develop goals to improve your emotional well-being. My practice offers CBT, mindfulness, and I am experienced in existential and person-centered therapy. Sessions with me consist of exploring thinking patterns, that are negatively impacting the individual's life, behaviors and relationships.

My goal is to help develop an optimal working relationship, where the client can connect to themselves, and together we form a genuine therapeutic partnership. Empathy is an important aspect of my sessions, my approach is to provide a safe space for clients to feel supported, heard, grounded in compassion.
