Mario Bandes

Seeking help takes courage, and you do not have to face life's challenges alone. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 17 years of experience in mental health and substance use treatment, I help individuals navigate difficult circumstances while building the skills needed for lasting change.

I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, life transitions, trauma, and substance use concerns. My clinical experience includes working with diverse populations in outpatient, intensive treatment, and behavioral health settings, providing support for individuals at various stages of recovery and personal growth.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, and other effective therapeutic approaches tailored to each client's unique needs and goals.

As a bilingual therapist, I provide services in both English and Spanish, creating a culturally sensitive environment where clients can feel understood, respected, and supported. My goal is to help you identify your strengths, overcome obstacles, and move toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.
