Reina Rosales, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Reina!

I am a bilingual Latina providing therapy for adults. I use client-centered, strengths-based care with CBT, DBT, and creative approaches like art to support anxiety, depression, life transitions, and personal growth.

My focus

I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, parenting challenges, first-generation or immigrant experiences, LGBTQ+ identities, and sexual or spiritual concerns. I help clients build resilience and coping skills.

My approach

I provide strengths-based, client-centered care, meeting clients where they are. I integrate CBT, DBT, and creative approaches while honoring each client's experiences, values, and identity.

My communication style

I am warm, compassionate, and direct. I listen carefully, provide clear guidance, and create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and supported.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a bilingual Latina, I was drawn to social work to support adults, parents, LGBTQ+ communities, and first-generation and immigrant clients. My experiences shaped my commitment to strengths-based, client-centered care.

My goals for you

I help clients set realistic, achievable goals and break them into manageable steps. Using CBT, DBT, and creative approaches like art, we track progress and adapt plans to each client's pace and readiness.

Our first session

In the first session, we get to know each other, discuss your goals and challenges, and explore a personalized approach using CBT, DBT, and creative strategies to create a safe space for growth and meaningful change.
