I have over 25 years of experience in the mental health field. Originally from Brazil, I worked as a social worker for 15 years before relocating to the United States to pursue my master’s degree.
For the past five years, I have worked in school settings supporting children and adolescents as a school-based mental health professional. During this time, I have completed extensive training in areas including family systems, trauma, autism, ADHD, grief, learning disabilities, and behavioral crisis interventions.
I am a passionate advocate for the well-being and safety of children and families, and I am committed to providing compassionate, culturally responsive support.
I work hard to be clinically informed and Christ centered in all that I do with my clients.
Most people don't come to therapy because life is perfect. They come because they're tired of living the same painful loop and wondering when something is finally going to change. That's where I come in. I'm Jared, and I work with individuals and couples of all ages across Nevada by telehealth. I help people who feel stuck in patterns rooted in trauma, including anxiety, depression, OCD, grief, and substance use. Whether you're a single parent juggling everything, a couple working to reconnect, or someone tired of carrying it alone, I would love to help.
My ideal client is someone who is ready to make a change even if they aren’t sure how. I work with many clients who struggle with all types of trauma, mood disorders, neurodivergence and often a combination of these traits. I often work with my clients to help them set attainable goals and break down complex situations piece by piece. I also strive to make a safe space for LGBTQ+ and encourage expressions of all gender identities and sexualities. Vulnerability is key to healing and I welcome anyone who is ready to begin and honest conversation about their goals.
Welcome to my practice!
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology in 1998 from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and my Master's Degree in Counseling, Marriage and Family Therapy in 2001 from UNLV as well. I have been seeing clients in private practice for over 25 years. I have been an AAMFT Approved Supervisor for over 15 years. I have worked in many capacities, including school counseling, teaching, juvenile justice, and community agency work. In April 2023, I began working as the Clinic Director at UNLV's Center for Individual, Couple, and Family Counseling at Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine. I continue to maintain a small private practice and supervise state interns in MFT and LCPC.
I have expertise in CBT, DBT, ABFT, EFT, and EMDR. I use a combination of attachment-based and trauma-informed theories, which provide strong foundations for healing and skill-building.
