About me

As a licensed therapist with extensive experience serving diverse communities in California, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients address challenging life experiences, including depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and grief.

I bring a compassionate and nuanced approach to therapy, particularly focusing on men's mental health, self-love, and healing from attachment wounds. My work is deeply rooted in understanding individual journeys of isolation, purpose, and personal transformation.

Drawing from four decades of clinical experience, I create a supportive environment where clients can explore difficult emotions like guilt and shame, and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. My therapeutic style emphasizes empowerment, respect, and collaborative healing.

I am committed to providing culturally responsive care that honors each person's unique background and lived experience. My goal is to support you in building resilience, understanding yourself more deeply, and creating positive change in your life.

Doc T was excellent to work with. Very down to earth and in touch. Presented several different methods to help with my situation. If you feel that his bio resonates, I highly recommend working with him, and will definitely work with him again in the future, if the need arises.

I highly recommend Joseph because he is relatable. I don't feel disrespected or that my concerns are minimized.
He has an approachable conversation style, provides real-world solutions to complex issues, and demonstrates expertise in helping me navigate workable solutions to my challenges.
