With seven years of experience, he has worked with children, youth, and adults coping with trauma and other life challenges such as depression, anxiety, and conflict in important relationships.

As a bilingual and bicultural clinician, Arturo supports BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals and families. He tailors sessions to each person’s goals and needs and offers online therapy for individuals anywhere in the state of California. Arturo looks forward to meeting clients and working together to improve their wellbeing.
