Hi there, I'm Richard!
I am bilingual and certified in substance abuse and mental health. I have taught psychology courses at community college and university levels, and have experience as a case manager and Employee Assistance Professional.
My focus
I have experience working with adults and adolescents. Most recently, I worked as a Military and Family Life Counselor, assigned to an elementary school working with students and stakeholders of military installations. I have also consistently practiced with adults in community practice. I am bilingual in English and Spanish.
My approach
Therapeutically, I work as an eclectic therapist, focusing on motivational interviewing, client-centered therapy, and positive psychology.
