About me

Hello, my name is Esteban Angel Cabrera. I am a licensed mental health counselor with over two decades of experience in a plethora of services that includes academia and community health providers. As a son of a migrant seasonal farm working family, I have experienced many challenges in my life. I longed for a sense of normalcy and stability. I learned long ago that these don't come easy or are handed to you. It can be very difficult to manage everyday life challenges let alone any major traumatic events. I am encouraged by a quote I learned long ago "never let yesterday's disappointments overshadow tomorrow's dream be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might." I believe in making connection with others through validation, encouragement and guidance. We all have struggles in our lives and I believe that struggles are not failures but it means you are succeeding in "not giving up!" The counseling experience begins with developing a safe and consistent rapport that allows the counselor and client the space to grow into a healthy therapeutic alliance. Therapy can be quite difficult and having a safe environment to talk about and process life's difficulties is so very important. I am excited in working with you to help you experience the great things that life has to offer you.

Esteban has been very helpful and one of the best therapist I have had since in WA I feel comforted by his weekly check ups and suggestions. Thank you.

Esteban is a fantastic fit for me.
I had two sessions with a different Better Help therapist before meeting Esteban. I decided to look for someone who not only matched my Christian values but I connected with. I am happy this is working out. If you are a Christian who is looking to avoid hippy dippy baloney then Esteban would probably be a solid choice.

I have been seeing Esteban for just under a year now, and he has been very helpful with advice in regards to many different aspects of my life. He was flexible with scheduling when I was on the East Coast for 3 months and is very attentive
