Meet The Team
Efrain Talavera, MS, LMHC, LADCI, CADCll
Clinical Therapist
As a counseling clinician, I am committed to creating an inclusive therapeutic environment that embraces and respects the diversity, identities, and statuses of others. I value the importance of cultural competence and foster inclusivity in the counseling process. I am guided by and committed to the values of empathy, understanding, and equity. I strive to foster growth and that every individual feels valued and heard.
​
I embrace others from all walks of life, including but not limited to various races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, abilities, socioeconomic statuses, religions, and ages. I am purposed with supporting others as they heal and through their unique journey toward well-being and personal growth.
​
I am dedicated to ongoing self-improvement, learning and self-reflection to better understand and challenge my own biases. I am committed to my own personal growth and enhancement of my ability as part of my commitment to provide inclusive and effective care. I welcome and foster authentic relationships with others and find meaning in tailoring therapeutic empowering interventions to best meet their needs.
​
Together, we can create a supportive and affirming therapeutic relationship that honors and celebrates your individuality.
