Dr. Orlando Calderon-Vega

My communication style

I prioritize clear and open communication to foster a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and offer you the opportunity to reflect on your experiences. If we encounter any challenges, you can expect me to remain calm and patient.

My journey to mental healthcare

My therapy journey started with a deep curiosity about human resilience and a desire to help others find strength during life’s most challenging moments. I had the opportunity to work with individuals who had experienced trauma. I am continually motivated by the fundamental belief that everyone has the potential for positive growth and change.

My goals for you

I believe a strong therapeutic alliance is important. We will identify goals that matter to you, such as improving relationships, building self-esteem, or addressing other personal objectives. As we work together, your goals may evolve with new insights and perspectives. We can adjust our plan at any time to keep it relevant and meaningful.

Our first session

Our first session will be a chance for us to get to know each other. We’ll talk about your background and what has led you to seek therapy. Therapy is a process, and we will build on our work together over time. It’s completely normal to feel nervous about your first appointment. I am here to guide you through each part of the process.
