Getting to know Antonio Gonzales Ogas

You are the driver. I'm just here to help you navigate. I believe that you are the expert and I'm the trained individual to hold space for you, listen, and ask questions in the hope of helping you find your path. I'm extremely down-to-earth and a very non-textbook, vulnerable therapist. My approach Three things that I use that help guide my approach to therapy: my intuition, my attunement with the client/patient, and my training in brainspotting. I have worked in 5 different states; 7 different major cities; I come from the very culturally diverse State of New Mexico and grew up not far from the U.S./Mexico Border; I am a proud gay man; I love to travel and have been to 29 different countries. These life experiences add to my education, skills, and gifts that I have accepted into my life and use to build the therapeutic relationship. I have worked with nearly every population out there, a myriad of diagnoses (I prefer to call them adaptations), and in various types of settings that include an HIV/AIDS research and resource center where I where I have been on a lifelong journey of being part of a clinical trial to find a cure or vaccine and was part of the initial roll-out of PrEP back in San Francisco in 2012 and was one of the first 100 gay men in the city to starting using it. Today, I take a shot 6 times a year. I've worked in San Francisco's largest homeless shelter. I worked at a senior center in the Inner City of San Francisco. I worked as an outreach worker administering food and supplies to homeless youth in Los Angeles which took me to such places as Skid Row, Koreatown, and West Hollywood. Since arriving in Minnesota nearly 9 years ago, I have finished my second master's degree in clinical social work and became a therapist shortly after graduating in 2018. My focus It's important to feel like you are ready for therapy. Nothing, nor no one, should coerce you into doing something that you don't want to do.
