Rocio Arguello-Balderas, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Rocio!

My professional practice includes working with children, adolescents, and adults. I meet patients where they are at, ensuring they feel heard and acknowledged.

My focus

My therapy approach works well with individuals with various diagnoses. I have been trained to work with the patient's symptoms and not focus on the diagnosis. This approach makes it possible to work with patients of various ages and needs.

My approach

I integrate various treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focus, EMDR, and Solution-Focused treatment. The combination of these approaches helps patients understand their symptoms and their needs. Knowledge increases patients' self-compassion, understanding, and overall motivation.

My communication style

My professional goal is to create an accepting and understanding space where my patients feel secure and comfortable. I approach my patients with an open, relatable, and transparent communication style.

My journey to mental healthcare

My psychology journey began during my work with a local non-profit agency that worked with sexual assault and domestic violence survivors. I was impacted by their strength and courage. I was driven to take part in their healing journey and have continued to build on that motivation by pursuing my degree in therapy.

My goals for you

Treatment goals help guide and motivate patients. I work with the patient collaboratively to assess their needs. As we continue our work, we can complete or modify their goals. Goals demonstrate progress which motivates the patients in their ongoing treatment.

Our first session

Our first session will consist of my introduction, and answering any questions you have regarding my practice and experience. You will have the opportunity to tell your story and express your needs. This engagement is the first step towards building rapport and the beginning of a successful treatment process.
