Asking for help can be one of the most challenging things you will ever have to do. When you are at your most vulnerable you need an experienced professional to help! My name is Ricky and I am an award winning licensed professional counselor-supervisor who specializes in working with teens to young adults dealing with adjustment / transition issues; post-traumatic stress disorder; disordered eating; non-suicidal self injuries; and dissociative disorders. I am excited to help you along your journey and eagerly await your call!
I work from an existential / person centered theoretical perspective. I work on treating the root problems and not just the symptoms (anxiety, depression, panic attacks, cutting, etc.). This is psychotherapy that changes lives.
I believe that every one of us has the capability to grow from the worst of circumstances and you have the power to heal. Therapy is a meaningful and personal investment that leads to creating a better life for yourself. Do not sell yourself short.
