(he/him)
Hello, my name is Mario and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been working as a therapist since 2021 but have been working in the mental health field since 2011 in various roles (e.g., Child Specialist, Intensive Care Coordinator) for different programs including Wraparound, IFCCS, Outreach Triage Team and others. Since 2021, I have worked with children and teenagers struggling with PTSD, anxiety and depression. I have also worked with adults all ages starting from 2024 for workers compensation cases, marital problems, men's issues, PTSD, anxiety and depression. I am bi-lingual speaking (English and Spanish) and was raised in Los Angeles.
I am a very calm, non-judgement person that hopes to provide you with a safe space to talk about anything on your mind.
I have worked with people struggling with PTSD for over 10 years. I bring a relaxed, supportive approach to all the people I work with struggling with trauma.
I don't have a preference for patients. I have worked with children/adolescence struggling with PTSD, depression and anxiety. I also have experience working with adults all ages struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety and marital problems.
