Description
Jor-El Caraballo is a southern bred, NYC made mental health professional who brings an affable and comfortable approach to his work with clients.  Named after superman's father, he has lived up to the name by empowering people with tools to improve their mental health.  Jor-El is truly one of the most kind and compassionate people I've met and we discuss the work that he has done delivering sexual assault prevention education programs to colleges and military bases to help empower men to prevent sexual assault and be effective bystanders as well as the ways in which he affirms and encourages people of all genders to be their authentic selves.  Jor-El is the co-creator of Viva Wellness NYC - you may remember the other creator, Rachel, was a guest a few episodes ago. To get in touch with Jor-El and learn more about his practice/book an appointment, visit www.vivawellnessnyc.com/.  ---  Follow Alison on Instagram at instagram.com/Alisonmdesir; Twitter: twitter.com/Alisonmdesir; Facebook: Facebook.com/Alisonmdesir.
