Encite Counseling - Orlando, Florida

We had a great first session with Joaquin. He helped us understand the root of our emotions and how to communicate them effectively using “I feel” and “It sounds like you feel” statements. I learned I need to communicate my needs more and my boyfriend needs to be aware of how his actions send certain messages.

This first session alone helped us heal from our first big fight of our relationship and I’m truly grateful for what Joaquin has opened our eyes to. He does not push for recurring sessions either, he lets us decide whether we need to come back on our own accord.

The online scheduling process is easy with email and text confirmations and reminders, however it was difficult to reach anyone by phone or email before the first session.

My fiancé and I went to Joaquin for premarital counseling. Joaquin was able to help us learn how to communicate to each other in a way that was productive and respectful. We both feel that our communication skills and relationship have strengthened due to our sessions. He is a wonderful listener and teacher. I appreciate our time spent learning from him.

Joaquin is great at what he does. He helped us explore the root of our feelings and provided a lot of validation and active listening. Through our sessions, my husband and I gained insight about ourselves which helped us navigate our communication better.

We loved that he was relatable. He provided us with tools that we can use long after therapy. Definitely a great investment!

About two years ago, I was in a relationship that was presenting various difficulties and communication was poor. As a suggestion by my now ex, I looked for therapists that work with couples and also that speak Spanish. Joaquin is a great therapist and dedicated to what he does. My relationship was not saved since the issues went beyond the capability of any professional. He opened my eyes to many personal issues as I continued to see him after the relationship ended. He was very supportive as many issues arose after the end of the relationship and I take fault into some of them. I highly recommend Joaquin for couples or individual therapy. Great with personality disorders too and codependency. I have come a long way with healing and much had to do with his help.

Words cannot describe how happy I am to have found Joaquin. He has exceeded my expectations of what a therapist can do for you. I have seen more “traditional” therapists in the past that only listen to me which didn’t provide much help. Joaquin is fully engaged in the conversation and makes you think which is something I have never experienced in therapy. He has changed my views on myself for the better and also influenced me to make great decisions for myself in general. I would recommend him to anyone at any age. He is truly the best.

My wife and I attended counseling with Joaquin. It was a truly great experience. We had many revelations during our sessions, and the tools and techniques we discussed during our sessions really helped shape our relationship for the better. Joaquin is personable, insightful, and very helpful. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced social worker to help guide you through your relationship.

Joaquin is wonderful! He takes the time to really get to know what is going on in your life/relationship and helps you dig deep to find the underlying issues that are damaging to a relationship. Then, remaining unbiased, helps you learn how to communicate your feelings in a deeper way to help you and your spouse truly understand each other! I truly believe that taking this step has saved my marriage! Thankful for Joaquin!

Joaquin, was an amazing guy who understood everything and helped an abundance with the conflicts with my relationship. He took the time to understand each persons point of view and is a very great listener as well as informative. Has great tips on how to handle situations outside of counseling. He is a very compassionate person I would definitely recommend him.
