Getting to know Oscar Maciel

Hi there, I'm Oscar! I hear you. You're struggling, and I promise you're not alone. I help my clients find a way forward even with things like anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and/or just feeling plain-ol' overwhelmed. My goal for my clients is to understand what is truly going on, address immediate needs, and use their strengths to gain control over their lives. My focus I have experience with diverse populations, but I mostly work with adults. I work with adults who are experiencing major life transitions, experiencing high levels of stress, may need help managing depression and anxiety, or may simply need someone there to provide guidance and mental health treatment. My approach I primarily use Gestalt therapy to work with what is going on during our therapy sessions. I will work with you to provide the therapy that you need and would honestly prefer. The goal is to increase insight, increase mindfulness, and improve self-esteem while also using therapeutic tools to manage those especially difficult moments. My communication style I listen with the intent to understand and provide non-judgment. I like there to be open, honest, and empathetic communication. I will typically ask more questions and will ensure I understand what you are communicating. Disagreements happen, and that is okay; we will talk it through in a calm and honest manner while deepening our relationship My journey to mental healthcare My journey started very early on in my life, and my desire to help others never went away. I solidified my passion with mental health crisis work and community mental health. I truly strive to be the best therapist I can be. Working in diverse settings has allowed me to understand the struggles of a human being and know how to truly help. My goals for you I am interested in the goals you are interested in. After defining the goals, I like to really understand what it may look like to reach those goals. Understanding where we are going helps guide our sessions.
