Pablo Castro

Hello everyone! My name is Pablo and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Arizona. I am an Army veteran and after my time in service, I received my Masters from Grand Canyon University and have been practicing therapy for about 3 years. I have about eight years overall experience in mental health working with a variety of clients from Serious Mental Illness (SMI) population to providing support to community members within Pima and Pinal County as a Co-Responder, working alongside Pinal County Sheriff and Tucson Police Department. Beyond therapy, I'm an avid outdoor enthusiast, finding joy in hiking and weight lifting. My passion for Jiu Jitsu keeps me grounded, and I nurture my spirit through my faith. Though my social circle is small, I intentionally invest my time in cultivating healthy relationships with family and loved ones, cherishing these connections deeply.

I believe my greatest strengths as a therapist lie in my empathic nature and holistic approach. I'm dedicated to understanding my client's experiences deeply and addressing their needs from a mind-body-spirit perspective. With a focus on experiential therapy, I ensure that sessions are meaningful and interactive. I'm always prepared and patient, ready to guide and teach, but also willing to challenge my clients to embrace the idea of seeing themselves as the expert of their experience, but at times, encourage them to see a different perspective when obstacles and/or blind spots appear along the way.

Our time together is a safe place where confidentiality is paramount; what's shared here stays here. We'll focus on building trust and rapport, creating a strong therapeutic relationship. I'll meet you exactly where you are in your journey, ordering a holistic approach that considers your mind, body, and spirit. Together, we'll set personal goals that transcend traditional talk therapy, recognizing the interconnection of all aspects of your being. Let's embark on this journey to growth and healing together.
