I’m Charles Velez, LMHCA, at Catalyst Counseling, and I work with teens (15+), adults, and seniors who are ready to better understand themselves and move forward with greater confidence and self-compassion. I provide care in an empowering, trauma-informed, and collaborative way, helping you make sense of your reactions, release shame, and recognize your strengths so you can feel more effective in your life, relationships, and future. I specialize in Trauma, Grief & Loss, and Life Transitions, and I offer both in-person and online sessions. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I welcome you to express yourself in the language you feel most comfortable using.
