Hello! I am Ricky. Overall, I believe in being present with the client and responding to their diverse needs. That is my priority. I sought help and guidance from a counselor when I was 18 years old, after I experienced some existential dread soon after graduating from high school. My experience with my counselor led me to pursue therapy myself.
