New to Grow
Hello, I’m Eddie, a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker (English and Spanish) with over five years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based therapy. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, mood disorders, grief, and trauma. My professional background includes work in education, child welfare, community mental health, and crisis intervention with high-acuity populations. Born and raised in Los Angeles, I take a collaborative, culturally grounded, and non-judgmental approach to therapeutic care. Together, we will examine past and present experiences to build a personalized clinical toolkit designed to help you navigate life's challenges. Therapy with me is a space for genuine connection, vulnerability, and personal growth—balancing deep clinical work with room for humor, healing, and authentic self-expression.
Our initial session is a space for us to build rapport and begin understanding your unique journey. We will review administrative details, discuss what brings you to therapy, and explore your relevant background and goals. Above all, it is an opportunity for us to connect, ensure we are a good fit, and lay a comfortable, collaborative foundation for our work together.
One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is creating an environment where you instantly feel welcome, safe, and heard. Rooted in my Mexican-Latino heritage, I bring a deep sense of hospitality and genuine warmth to my practice. I am comfortable holding space for the full spectrum of your emotions—whether that means sharing laughter, navigating grief, or sitting with discomfort. Together, we’ll strike a balance between compassion and constructive growth: I will gently challenge you outside your comfort zone in a supportive, safe environment to help reduce distress, relieve symptoms, and empower you to reach your personal goals.
Working collaboratively to sort out and overcome life challenges. While simultaneously clarifying goals, identifying personal strengths, and reducing self-doubt.
