Hello!
I’m Roy Angelo Briones Manosca
I believe that therapy should be more than just a conversation—it should be a catalyst for real change. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a graduate of Chaminade University and I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and families navigate the complexities of modern life.
My approach is defined by being open-minded, solution-focused, and direct. I understand that taking the step to start therapy is a significant investment of your time and energy, which is why I work as an active participant in your journey.
You won’t find me just nodding along; you’ll find me in the “ring” with you, providing honest feedback and evidence-based tools to help you move forward.
My Clinical Specialties
I provide expert care for a variety of challenges, with a deep focus on:
- Couples & Families: Breaking negative cycles and restoring connection
- Anxiety & Depression: Managing symptoms and reframing thought patterns
- Life Transitions: Navigating adjustment disorders and significant life shifts with a strengths-based perspective.
My Therapeutic Approach
Every individual and relationship is unique, so I draw from a diverse toolkit to meet your specific goals:
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Identify, heal, and strengthen relational bonds in various past and present relationships.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Address the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and find unhealthy patterns that may be making you feel unsure.
- Solution-Focused Therapy (SFBT): Identify clear goals and achieve immediate “small wins.” Sometimes the first step can seem too big or too far away, we will work towards a confident you.
- Motivational Interviewing: Find internal values, priorities, and other important factors that make up who you are, who you want to be, and where you want to go.
Whether you are looking to save a relationship, manage your anxiety, or simply find a clearer path through a difficult season, my goal is to help you move from feeling “stuck” to feeling empowered.
