Luis Robert Uceda, licensed mental health therapist

My clients describe me as:

You will have ample time to verbalize what triggers cause you anxiety, or feel disconnected from others (family, peers, etc.), explore those factors.

Something to know about my approach is:

you will gain clarity from narrative, undivided attention as you unpack your story, etc. discuss relevant themes, comprehend ways to cope with triggers, identify which factors affect your mental health, gain strategies to redirect yourself to safety

Together, we will:

discuss family dynamics, or social elements of friction and comprehend ways to heal from recurrent triggers, become familiar with your resources and become effective communicator to the person(s) in question, use healthy boundaries, and gain safety.

I specialize in working with people who:
