Over human history, people have mostly lived in close-knit communities. This has eroded with the advances in transportation and technology. Most people have lost much of the social support our forebearers enjoyed. Mental Health Professionals have taken on this role in their respective communities and are an excellent resource for you to realize your strengths and improve your well-being. When your car breaks down you take it to a mechanic. When your tooth hurts you see a dentist. When your mental health can use a “tune-up,” see a Mental Health Professional!

I work with clients who have generally crafted an intentional life, often one marked by good judgment, predictably optimistic outcomes, and plenty of agency. A life that works… right up until it doesn’t. I have a special place in my heart for clients who would rather be doing almost anything else with their time than go to therapy. If you are someone who has an aversion to dredging up slings and arrows, I can relate. My clinical experience specifically includes working with the families of individuals with a severe mental illness diagnosis, bereavement counseling (including situations of violent or traumatic loss), and chronic illness and infertility. I also work with individuals who are anticipating or experiencing stress related to high-conflict divorce, post separation abuse, and relationship issues.

Hi. I'm Josue. Nice to meet you. I am a generalist practitioner. During our sessions, we'll work at your pace and where you are emotionally. We'll utilize compassion and kindness in a safe setting, plus a mixture of mental health interventions. We'll set a goal and work towards achieving that goal. We'll challenge your negative thoughts. Don't worry, we don't have to delve deep into your past if you are not ready. Sometimes there is the need to process what you are going through at the moment and have someone to be there and listen - and that's okay. We can start there. You can expect to explore various aspects of your identity in a safe manner that works for you.
