Let's talk. My name is Nilton. I have a PhD in Mental Health Counseling. My counseling philosophy is centered on aligning with my clients and creating mutual trust right off the bat. I have had advanced training in both Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral Therapies which allows me to best address the needs of clients. I love the quote, "Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but sometimes, playing a poor hand well."
My interests within the field of counseling involves working with adults including veterans and first responders as I am Marine Corps veteran myself. I teach at two local counseling graduate school programs and enjoy presenting my research at national conferences including New York City, Chicago, and Washington DC.
I specialize in working with various diagnoses including, but not limited to: Depression, Anxiety, Adjustment Disorders, Post Traumatic Stress, and Substance Use Issues. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!
