As a clinical social worker and psychotherapist, my goal is to provide a safe environment and build relationships with my clients based on mutual trust and respect. I have a non-judgmental and affirming approach. I work with individuals, couples and other relationship constellations. I specialize in mood disorder, personality disorder, HIV, LGBT, life transitions, sexuality and cultural acculturation/assimilation. I relocated to San Diego, CA, in 2023. I am also licensed in New York, New Jersey, and Delaware. I also provide services in Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.
I have had the opportunity and good fortune to work with individuals, couples, and polyamorous families on a variety of issues which include, mood disorders, personality disorders, HIV, LGBT, Sexuality and Sex positivity, life transitions, cultural acculturation/assimilation, and interpersonal relationship issues.
As a Latino man I was born and raised bilingual Spanish/English. Prior to becoming a clinical social worker/therapist I was in the academic world as a Spanish Grammar/Literature Professor and community liaison. I also had the fortune of growing up near the Brazilian/Portuguese Communities and have learned to communicate in Portuguese.
