Master’s level clinician with graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Extensive experience working with youth and young adults as a college counselor, in social services, and disadvantaged adults of all ages in community mental health. University of Washington Alumnus with major in business finance and experience in social support systems and emotional counseling. Enthusiastic, Responsible, and Evidence-Based with excellent written/spoken communication skills in Spanish & English. Intermediate French. Proficient user of Microsoft Office and Titanium. My name is Rogelio Navarro, I am a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and attended Northwest University in Kirkland, WA. I am bi-cultural and bilingual in Spanish. My approach is holistic, and I am well versed in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and humanistic psychology. Humanistic because I believe everyone has something special and unique inside themselves which will find a way to grow and improve as a result of learning to relate to painful experiences more effectively. We, as people, have an extraordinary ability to learn from the past, never give up, and take small steps toward a lifetime of joy and fulfillment. Counseling can help us understand ourselves and how we relate to the world, clarifying what is most meaningful to us, our deepest values, and steps we can take toward making meaningful progress. As a licensed mental health counselor associate (LMHCA), I am honored to support you on your life journey, and my goal is to help you increase your sense of well-being, stability, and healing. My areas of focus include depression, bipolar I & II, anxiety, stress, anger, addiction, couple's counseling, cultural/social adjustment, insomnia, and crisis management. My interests include spirituality, lifestyle, music, and exercise. No matter what you’ve been through or how painful the circumstances, I believe healing can and does happen, and that you can be supported as you work to overcome hardships and maximize your full potential. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is a research-proven approach that helps you to navigate a healthy balance between acceptance of any inevitable hardship you must face while simultaneously working to create the positive changes you desire. Together we will work toward healing any stuck emotions, problem areas, or situations in your life, even if they seem insurmountable. This involves emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal relationships, and mindfulness.
