Armando Sanchez, LCSW
Armando Sanchez has been a social worker for almost 10 years. His experience as a school social worker taught him the value of mental health support to young people and to communities of color. Most recently in his career, he worked with teens and young adults of various backgrounds on issues related to anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, coping skills, healthy relationships building, sexual orientation, life skills, social skills, and more. Personal passions of his are racial and social justice. People, including children, are impacted by race and identity issues in ways that cause real emotional, mental, physical, financial, and spiritual harm. Armando wants to integrate racial and social justice into mental health, and his work is rooted in this practice. As a proud brown, gay, male, bilingual therapist living in Austin, he is thrilled and ready to provide support to his clients on their healing and wellness journey.
