Mario Sobalvarro(He/Him/His)

Mario Sobalvarro is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist located in Boynton Beach, FL. He tends to work with those who feel like it’s difficult to get through the day because of emotions like loneliness, sadness, anxiety, or frustration. These clients lack a sense of connection with themselves and others. They might also struggle to regulate their emotions, feeling positive one moment and then deeply unhappy in the next. 

In therapy with Mario, clients explore what brings them meaning and fulfillment. They take a look at their families of origin and examine how their backgrounds impact their present lives, relationships, and wellbeing. Clients also reflect on what currently influences their emotions and how to avoid negative influences to engage in positive, joyful feelings. Mario practices Family System Theory, a therapy approach that integrates the many parts of the self into one cohesive way of living. He also practices trauma-informed Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and hypnotherapy, teaching clients skills in managing distress. 

Mario earned a Master’s degree from Barry University. He provides warm, empathetic conversation with his clients as he walks alongside them as they heal, grow, and thrive. When working with Mario, clients learn to how relax into feelings of safety and security and how to create these feelings for themselves in previously distressing contexts.
