LMHC
Chemal Cruz, LMHC, is a compassionate therapist dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families embark on the journey toward a better way of life. He provides a safe haven for those who need someone to confide in and offers an unbiased, non-judgmental ear with valuable feedback. Particularly attuned to the needs of men, Chemal understands that many seek a special space where they can lay down their armor and explore their true selves, free from pride, shame, or guilt. He embraces all who struggle with decision-making, self-identity, and the challenges of personal growth, recognizing that this process is lifelong and cannot be rushed. Utilizing approaches such as the Gottman Couples Therapy as a foundational tool, he seamlessly incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to illuminate how thoughts influence emotions and behaviors, particularly in the realms of trauma and anxiety. Chemal's background as an islander from a Latino-Caribbean heritage influences his practice, allowing him to appreciate the complex narratives behind what society often dismisses as 'crazy.' He invites all clients to share their unique ideas and beliefs as they work through challenges together, promoting a therapeutic environment that celebrates diversity and personal exploration.
