Meet Our Therapists

Roberto Quiroz

MS, LMHC

Originally from New York, Roberto had the opportunity to live in several different states, including Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Texas, before moving to Florida in 1996. He received his Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and built his expertise through management positions at several agencies in the mental health field. Through these experiences, Roberto has worked with diverse populations, from children and adolescents to adults.

Roberto first began working at Pathways Counseling Center in 2008 on a part-time basis and eventually decided to stay full-time. In January 2023, he took over ownership from the founder and original owner, Nancy Makar, continuing the legacy she established over three decades.

During his years working alongside Nancy, Roberto learned that "education is extremely valuable, and experience is often the greatest teacher. Experience is the best teacher for learning adaptability habits in business." This philosophy guides his leadership at Pathways today, where he is committed to fostering an environment where both clients and therapists can grow and thrive.

By sharing their experiences and continuing Nancy's vision, Roberto and the entire Pathways Counseling team are dedicated to facilitating growth and knowledge for everyone seeking to adapt, heal, and thrive in today's world. He is honored to lead this compassionate community of mental health professionals and support staff who make Pathways Counseling Center a place of hope and transformation.
