What to Expect From Our Work Together?
During our initial appointment, we will discuss the concerns and issues that bring you to therapy. Then, we will collaborate on treatment goals. During our work together, I will teach you strategies and skills so that you can feel and perform better. Many of my patients report feeling better within the first month of therapy and continue to improve thereafter.

He takes a team approach with his clients and believes in the value of the therapeutic relationship while empowering clients to make decisions in the treatment process. As opposed to some therapy that can last years, Dr. Marcelo uses a briefer counseling model when possible.
