My name is Esteban J. Rios and I am a practicing therapist with over 30 years working in the human services field and 13 years as a licensed social worker. I have a passion for helping people reach their highest potential in life. I have a desire to help people understand their past experiences and help them make changes in their lives.

My approach to therapy

I am attentive to my clients' needs and goals. I take a holistic approach to my work. I use evidence-based practices to inform treatment. I have worked with individuals, couples, and families. I work mostly with individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, and substance use.

I am dedicated to helping others. I am driven by the notion that we all have a purpose in this life and deserve to reach our goals no matter the obstacles. I take a person-centered approach to goal setting. This is a collaboration. The client determines the pace of how we navigate and move towards goals..
