Great to meet you!

Hi there!!!! Ricky here, most people describe me as being casual, laid back, and very funny. These three things are essential when it comes to the way I do things as therapy should be a comfortable experience that talks about very uncomfortable topics.

My approach to therapy

Emotions are the main driver to healing; therefore, I like to revisit integral moments or relationships from the clients life and process the associated feelings to uncover the correlation between how these feelings impact them in the present. The best way to deal with something is to feel it.

What you can expect from me

An increased tolerance and ability to feel what they are experiencing in the moment and developing vocabulary to express it.
