Sergio is a great listener. He is also a straight shooter and will tell you things you don’t want to hear sometimes. His overall goal is to listen and give you the tools needed to deal with mental health issues.

Sergio does a great job of listening and giving practical suggestions and ideas on a wide variety of concerns I have. I usually leave a discussion having practical and actionable steps I can take.
