More about Oscar

- LMHC
I am a licensed mental health counselor in Miami for the last 17 years. I have worked with clients in the military for the last 10 years where I provided support to the family which included separation, resilience with children, and loss of family members. I also work with group, couples, and individualized therapies.
My counseling approach is cognitive behavior, gestalt, motivational interviewing, and solution focused therapy. My style will always focus on the individual and I will adjust for the needs of said individual.
I can appreciate the courage it took to reach out and I look forward to working with you !

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Very friendly and good listener
Oscar takes the time to really focus on what is important. He listens carefully and intently and always arrives prepared. Before we end each session, he gives gives me some goals to strive for and a focus for the next session. I really enjoy working with him!
When I had my first therapy session, I felt like I was helpless, suffering from panic attacks once or twice a week. Afraid to leave my house almost. Affecting almost every avenue of my day to day life. Now, after just 1 month or so, I am feeling my anxiety decrease. I am able to handle events without becoming anxious, and the techniques I've been taught when I have a trigger, are working!!! I'm not magically fixed, but I am growing and becoming a new and improved person.
We connected immediately and I am happy with our progress and process but feel just a bit rushed. Need more time focusing on the current waves before visiting the past.
He is great!
