Siomara Calixtro, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Siomara!

I have extensive experience working with adolescents and adults of all ages. In my private practice, I utilize a compassionate, client-strength-based approach to ensure clients are feeling safe and understood. I focus on meeting clients' needs and expectations for treatment care.

My focus

I am comfortable treating Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Attention Deficit Disorder, Bipolar I and II, and relationship issues.

My approach

My most common theoretical approaches are Cognitive Behavior therapy, Client Centered therapy, Solution Focus therapy, Motivational Intervention therapy, Holistic approach therapy, and Family System Interventions therapy, depending on the clients' needs and respecting clients' belief systems.

My communication style

My communication style focuses on active listening, respectful boundaries, professional expectations, and an appropriate tone of voice.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was attracted to serve as a therapist due to my desire to improve my community as a Spanish-speaking therapist. I know the need for these services in Spanish is often overlooked or understaffed, which I wish to change.

My goals for you

During the first session, while building rapport, I make sure to ask the client about their treatment goals. I make sure I am the right fit to serve the client to the best of my abilities.

Our first session

During the first session, the client should expect to begin building rapport; the client will be assessed for SI/HI to ensure the client's safety, elaborate on treatment goals, and a plan for the following session.
