Hector Zayas

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Greetings! My name is Hector. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), Master Certified Addiction Professional, National Certified Peer Specialist (NCPS) & Recovery Coach, I assist clients seeking recovery from behavioral health and/or addiction challenges. My approach, although firm and tenacious, is pragmatic, altruistic, rooted in compassion, empathy, patience & understanding. It is a blend of over 12 years of professional and personal experience as someone living in long-term recovery. I have had the opportunity to work with many clients, the vast majority of them active, reserve, discharged and/or retired military Veterans such as myself.

My therapeutic orientation combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, reality, and rational-emotive therapies, motivational interviewing, and even 12-Step facilitation, if/as needed. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and taking the first steps towards change, and for that I commend you. If you are ready to embark on your path of healing and recovery, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

For many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions. It can offer a practical and outcome-focused path to care for these kinds of issues.

One of the primary benefits is convenience – clients can meet with licensed professionals in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility often makes it easier to maintain consistency in treatment and fit therapy into a busy schedule.

Each therapist offering online care is a licensed professional, and clients have the option to change therapists if they want a different fit. For many people, remote sessions provide an accessible, adaptable way to pursue progress and support for mental health and life challenges.
