Ginette Walker, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Ginette!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist offering psychotherapy in English and/or Spanish via telehealth. My approach to therapy is eclectic and depends on people's needs and circumstances. Much of my experience is in helping clients engage in processes of post-traumatic and intergenerational growth.

My focus

I enjoy working with folks across the lifespan, including in individual, family, and other group settings.

My approach

My approach is developmentally and cross-culturally informed and responsive. I strive to provide attuned therapeutic interactions in session.

My communication style

Sessions will feel like time spent with a respectful, thoughtful, non-judgmental, and curious therapist who is focused on providing what help I can and each person would like.

My journey to mental healthcare

Anthropology as an undergraduate major turns out to have been a great background for getting the larger picture, and master's and post-master's education in Counseling Psychology has helped me zoom in to listen deeply to each client’s individual needs.

My goals for you

I am interested in what heals and sustains authentically, and I consider it an honor to explore what that could be with the people I encounter in this work.

Our first session

If you are an adult caregiver of a child, before you bring them to the session, let's meet for an adults-only conversation focused on your child's and family's history, as well as to begin setting a frame for therapy.
