Enrique Cruz

My name is Ricky, and I am glad you are taking the first step toward better mental health. I obtained my Masters in Social Work at University at Albany, State University of New York.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and Solution-Focus Therapy. I've worked with both adults and adolescents in the areas of substance abuse and mental health. I work with adults and adolescents in severe crisis circumstances and life transitions.

My approach is based on your individual needs, and I respect and understand that the issues bringing you into counseling are creative and unique adaptive strategies you developed to help you manage your surroundings.

Goals in treatment are tailored and worked on with you as a team and focused on what you identify as a goal. I want you to leave our session with a different perspective, tools, or a smile.
