Great to meet you!

My name is Omar Sandoval and I could have been a statistic. The persistent financial, social, and interpersonal adversity I experienced coming from a low socioeconomic status single parent home could have defined me were it not for hope, discipline, education, luck, and my hobbies. Instead, I am a Mexican-American English/Spanish speaking Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor practicing since 2017. I was inspired to work in this field due to many hardships growing up. Though difficult to overcome, such significant obstacles ignited my curiosity for understanding the human condition and improving upon it when and where possible, a lifelong pursuit which still guides me personally and professionally.

Me llamo Omar Sandoval y soy un Consejero Profesional Licenciado - Supervisor bilingue ejerciendo desde el 2017 de descendencia Mexicana. Por que me crie humildemente, desde joven aprendi la importancia de el aprendizaje, luchando y chambeando, y la sinceridad interna y externamente. Tambien aprendi que la vida no es nada facil y, para sobrevivir y sobresalir, hay que hacerse duro y valiente. Solo fue asi que aprendi no temerle a las problemas ni a los crisis ya que en esta vida hay muchos y tambien aprendi como comunicar esta capacidad para superar los obstaculos interna y externamente en mi vida personal y en mi profesion.

My approach to therapy

I have experience assessing and addressing complex multicultural, identity, motivational, self-esteem, and self-actualization issues with underserved clients. Though I have an eclectic person-centered integrative psychotherapy approach to treatment, I primarily use cognitive-behavioral therapy and psychodynamic therapy to recognize, scrutinize, and modify problematic beliefs, thoughts, and behaviors and their past and current origins, meaning, causes and alternatives.

What you can expect from me

We will work towards a better way of being which may include but is not limited to an awareness of why you do what you do and how to act, react, and live in a comparatively less maladaptive yet healthier manner through pro-social coping and skills building using your strengths and goals as a foundation. I look forward to walking alongside you on our journey to better mental health and a better way of being. For me, this is not a profession but a purpose. I will do my best to show you your best.

Estableeceremos un entendimiento de sus necesidades, habitos, y de Ud y su mundo para comenzar.

Para mi esto es mas que una profesion, es mi proposito. Dare lo maximo para que Ud llegue a su maximo.
