M.A. Mental Health Counseling
Hi, I’m Bobby.
I believe therapy isn’t just about talking—it’s about transformation. It’s about making sense of the past, quieting the noise of self-doubt, and stepping into a version of yourself that feels whole, grounded, and free.
As a therapist in New York City, I don’t just bring credentials to the table—I bring lived experience. I know what it’s like to wrestle with depression, anxiety, and substance abuse—not just as a clinician but as a person who’s been there. I understand what it’s like to get those intrusive thoughts, the exhaustion of high-functioning anxiety, and feeling just flat-out disconnected from yourself.
Before I was a therapist, I was an actor. I spent years on stage, learning what it means to listen deeply, to connect beyond words, and to tell stories that matter. That experience shaped how I work in the therapy room because therapy, at its core, is about your story: the one you’ve lived, the one you tell yourself, and the one you’re still writing.
Therapy with me is collaborative, creative, and real. Some days, we’ll do the deep, reflective work of untangling old patterns. Other days, we’ll focus on practical tools—how to self-regulate in a spiral, how to set boundaries without guilt, how to challenge that inner critic who won’t shut up. You want to talk about God? Let’s go. And some days? We’ll laugh. Because healing doesn’t have to be heavy all the time.
I use a blend of evidence-based techniques (CBT, ACT, mindfulness, psychodynamic therapy) with a deeply human, intuitive approach. My goal isn’t just to help you “manage” symptoms—it’s to help you feel fully alive again.
As a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I’m committed to creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and valued—exactly as you are.
Healing is messy, yet bold. Growth is uncomfortable, yet worth it. But you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s start where you are and move forward together.
