About Gerald

I come from a background of familiarity in different modalities such as CBT, DBT, Trauma Focused; and others; I typically work with all types of clients from different ages from 5 to 95 and older; and I try to assist them to overcome the challenges they face along with assisting them to meet their goals.

Clientele can expect to have a lot of support toward their goals and to making progress; and along with a lot of caring and concern for their situations in order to assist them with healing and continued growth in therapy.

I encourage you to be the best you and by working with me; we will be able to bridge that gap towards success.

"As one who has experienced trauma and loss along with educational challenges; I feel this makes me more understanding of another person's experience."
