READY TO START?

Let’s connect! Schedule a free consultation with me.

During our consultation you will be able to ask questions that you may have or schedule our first session.

We will meet weekly to shine light on the problems you are experiencing while working on ways that will help you navigate them.

My goal is that you find our work reparative and liberating where you implement small changes to your daily life and reflect back on your progress.

MEET OCTAVIO, LCSW

“ The curious paradox is that when I accept myself, just as I am, then I can change.” - Carl Rogers

I specialize in being your partner to release the grip of the past, process grief, and find meaning in your life. You will be able to accept yourself as you are to live a life that is of your own choosing- of your own volition.

In my work with you, my approach may oscillate between being: directive, explorative, goal-oriented, interpersonal, conversational or we may simply share presence together. You can always expect me to be transparent, compassionate, and engage you with unconditional positive regard.

When I am not in the therapeutic space, you can catch me knitting, learning languages, going to the gym, or cooking.
