Jackie Gomez, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Jackie!

I have professional experience helping adolescents and adults with stress, anxiety, childhood trauma, abuse, and depression, including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I believe we all have the tools needed to heal within us, and my role is to guide and teach you to use your tools healthily.

My focus

I have experience helping adolescents and adults with stress, anxiety, childhood trauma, abuse, and depression, including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I have worked with Military members and their families, educating them on Anxiety and Depression.

My approach

I am client-centered and believe you are the expert on your story with many strengths to overcome challenges. Taking the first step to start therapy takes courage, and I am proud of you for getting started. I use Cognitive behavioral, Object relations, and somatic approaches.

My communication style

I believe we all have the tools needed to heal within us, and my role is to guide and support. and teach you to use your tools healthily. I am honored when a person allows me to accompany them on their healing journey; therefore, a safe space and safe relationship must be built and kept.

My journey to mental healthcare

I entered this field because I am passionate about helping people discover their inner strengths and navigate life's challenges. Witnessing clients grow and heal is deeply rewarding, and I feel privileged to walk alongside them on their journey toward wellness.

My goals for you

My approach is one of mutual goal-setting and planning. I believe that as I learn and build a therapeutic relationship with each person, the path and goals will be mutually constructed as healing progresses.

Our first session

During our first session, besides getting to know you, I will be taking a complete psycho-social history of you and your family. Appropriate paperwork, such as confidentiality, my role, and your role, legal documents, and what you can and can not expect from Therapy.
