Aleida Murcia, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Aleida!

I help adults improve their mental health and overall well-being. Whether you're navigating relationship difficulties, processing trauma, adjusting to life changes, or discovering your purpose, I'm here to support you with warmth and understanding.

My focus

I work with adults addressing anxiety, depression, stress, anger management, grief, family conflict, relationship difficulties, trauma, and challenging life transitions. My focus is on helping you discover your purpose and build resilience.

My approach

I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Trauma-Focused practices tailored to your unique needs. This holistic approach creates an emotional and spiritual path to healing, happiness, and success.

My communication style

My style is warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental. I create a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Collaboration is key as we work together to identify goals, develop coping strategies, and foster personal growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for helping others and fascination with the human mind led me to mental healthcare. Working in child welfare fueled my commitment to supporting individuals and families in overcoming challenges and building resilience.

My goals for you

I empower you with tools, insights, and self-awareness to navigate obstacles, heal from past wounds, and cultivate a fulfilling life. Together, we'll develop healthy coping mechanisms, improve relationships, enhance self-esteem, and align your actions with your values.

Our first session

We'll discuss what brings you to therapy and explore your hopes for our work together. I'll gather information about your background, current concerns, and life experiences to understand your unique situation. This meeting establishes our connection and collaboratively develops your therapeutic plan.
