(he/him)
Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I speak Spanish/English and I have been in practice since 2014, helping individuals and families cope with significant changes, losses and experiences. I believe we all have internal resources to heal with and with professional help one can alleviate from emotional distress and fulfill meaningful lives. I look forward to hearing your story.
During our first session, we will get to know each other and develop a plan for treatment. I will get to learn of the reasons you are seeking help and then offer my clinical judgement to assist you. You are your own expert and collaboratively we can work on your goals.
Having worked with diverse populations: veterans, substance abuse, homelessness, domestic violence, psychosis, relational conflicts, I have developed professional experience with relational turmoil and cognitive perspectives that impacts each of our lives.
I serve individuals with all levels of emotional distress and help cultivate joyful meaningful lives.

Fantastic character and human being, instantly makes you feel very comfortable with his warmth and presence. Had a very informative and empowering initial consultation, and I'm happy to have found a partner I can trust to go on my transformation journey with.

Roverto is a great fit and creates a space for open conversation and listening. I would recommend him to a friend

I really enjoy my sessions with Roverto. He has this rare balance of calling me out on my bullsh*t when I need it, pushing me when it matters most, and still laughing at my jokes. He helps me feel seen, heard, and understood in a way that makes therapy both safe and effective. Honestly, I sometimes think Roverto will need his own therapist after taking me on as a client—but that shows how committed he is to the work. Highly recommend!
