Supporting mental health includes making sure everyone has access to basic needs like food. I’m sharing this community resource for anyone who may need the support 💛

Yooo! Listen, i gotta get serious with y’all for a second. We are in some pretty gall darn uncertain times. With SNAP benefits being cut, people not being paid to work, we’ve got a lot of people who need some help! So, that’s just what we are going to do. We are launching two initiatives here at Muchachos.

1) we are opening the Muchachos Lil Pantry. Our merch shelf will now be used for filling up with bread, canned goods, non perishable items, no questions asked. Take what you need. If you can, please bring some items with you to fill our “pantry.” If you do, theres a free street taco in it for you!

2) we are offering SNAPADILLAS. Literally, no questions asked. You need a hot quesadilla, we got you. Just order the SNAPADILLA with pork or chicken and we got you, it comes with a soda. One per person. No payment needed. No judgment. Just happy and full bellies.

And listen, don’t y’all dare bring politics into this. We are here to feed. Ensure peeps have a hot meal. To share our love and queso with you all.

These start immediately. So come on out, do some good, fill your tum tums and let’s get through all this together!

If you are wanting to help by donating, you can bring in cash or send via Venmo! The last 4 of my cell are 8618. https://venmo.com/u/Nick-Maestas

Hope to serve you soon, turkeys.

September is Su***de Prevention Month 💙🌍

Every 40 seconds, someone in the world dies by su***de. Yet every single one of those lives mattered. Every. Single. One. 💔

💡 What you can do this month:

✔️ Check in on a friend — even a quick “thinking of you” text matters.
✔️ Ask directly: “Are you okay?” … and listen with compassion.
✔️ Share the number — 📞 Call or text 988 if someone is in crisis.
✔️ Remind them: Needing help is human. Asking for support is strength.

✨ If you or someone you love is struggling, know that support is out there. You don’t have to carry the weight alone.

Su***de prevention isn’t just about crisis — it’s about connection, compassion, and showing up for one another. 💕

If you’re struggling: you are not alone. Reach out. Support is here. If your loved one is struggling: you don’t have to have all the answers. Just being present can save a life.

As a therapist, I hold space for people to be heard, understood, and supported. 💙 If you or someone you love is ready to take a step toward healing, I invite you to connect with me.

Together, we can break the silence. 🕊️✨

📞 If you are in crisis, dial or text 988 for the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

Trauma impacts three areas of the brain - amygdala, hippocampus, and the prefrontal cortex. As a result, individuals feel they are re-experiencing the trauma and unable to regulate their symptoms. Individuals get stuck with negative thoughts about themselves, others, and/or the world. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy can help reduce symptoms from trauma by removing the block and naturally moves the brain's information processing system towards healing.

FAQ: What services do you provide?

I am a bilingual therapist who works with a variety of demographics. It is important to me that my clients achieve their growth goals on a regular basis.

First, I provide individual therapy. I work with individuals as young as 5 years old. Individual therapy is designed to explore and discover your own unique set of strengths and resources. My approach helps to reduce and manage mental health symptoms.

I also provide family therapy. Family therapy is designed to improve communication, problem-solving, coping skills, and enhance the connection of the family unit.

Lastly, I provide couples counseling. Couples therapy helps couples strengthen their bond by reducing conflict, increasing communication, and restoring friendship & intimacy.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is more than just the "winter blues." SAD is similar to depression but the symptoms are typically present in the fall and winter (some people can experience SAD over the summer). SAD can be overwhelming and interfere with daily functioning.

Here are a few suggestions to help you combat the symptoms of SAD:

Light Therapy - a light box that emits a very bright light and it is used first thing in the mornings
Increase exposure to sunlight by spending time outside
Exercise - it boosts your energy, improves your moods, and promotes better sleep
Connection - connecting with others improves your moods, self-esteem, and encourages activity
