Gardenia Valencia

My communication style

My style is warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental. I create a space where you feel heard, validated, and empowered to make positive changes. I believe in the power of our therapeutic alliance and work collaboratively with you to identify and pursue your goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path to psychotherapy began in crisis intervention, where I repeatedly heard people wish they had sought support sooner. This inspired me to focus on providing tools and support to help prevent escalation to crisis states.

My goals for you

I guide and support you on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and growth. While change can be challenging, it can also be incredibly beautiful and rewarding. I walk alongside you, offering expertise and compassion every step of the way.

Our first session

We'll gather a history of your life experiences and develop goals to focus on together. We'll also spend time getting to know each other to determine if we're a good fit. It's important that you feel comfortable with me as your therapist.
