Jose is a very good therapist. I appreciate his caring nature and his ability to communicate with me about my situation. As someone who has never sought therapy before, I felt comfortable with Jose and his insight regarding my anxiety issues.

Jose is a patient therapist who listens first and then gives his positive input on the topic or conversation! I recommend anyone who has been diagnosed or experienced any type of anxiety, depression, or other symptoms to contact Jose! The crazy thing is just speaking and having normal conversations with him you start analyzing and reflecting what the issue is and where it stems from!
