New to Grow
Welcome to Grow Therapy. My name is Jose, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting children, individuals, and families. I focus on strengths, collaboration, and use practical strategies that support lasting personal growth. I strive to create a truly warm, respectful environment where clients feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During our first session, we will discuss the meaning of counseling and expectations you may have for our meetings. I will take a collaborative, compassionate and direct approach to explore what’s brought you into treatment.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Having worked with diverse populations for the past 10 years, I can help you find new ways to take on life’s obstacles and objectives. I will also bring an experiential approach to help you practice and learn new skills.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am passionate about serving underprivileged populations, working with the Latino community, and working with males seeking counseling services. Reducing stigma and creating a safe and supportive environment for all folks coming into therapy is very important to me as a provider.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy components to identify negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and replace them with more constructive thoughts and actions.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
I draw from the framework of Emotionally Focused Therapy to help clients identify their underlying emotional pain and recognize the negative cycles that impact their relationships.
Attachment-based
I utilize attachment-based principles to highlight how early relational experiences shape current emotional and relational patterns.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to help clients identify specific, achievable goals. I use interventions to highlight strengths, track progress, and create practical steps for change.
