Natalia Arellano, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Natalia!

I'm deeply committed to walking alongside you, creating a safe and supportive space where you can feel seen, heard, and empowered. Together, we'll navigate life's challenges at your own pace, working collaboratively toward healing, growth, and meaningful change.

My focus

I work with adults experiencing anxiety and depression. I also support those going through life transitions, managing stress, building coping skills, addressing self-esteem challenges, and cultivating self-love.

My approach

My therapeutic approach is guided by your unique needs. I use a combination of CBT, psychodynamic, mindfulness, strength-based, and client-centered modalities. This integrated approach allows for a personalized and holistic path to help you truly thrive.

My communication style

Your well-being is honored and supported in my presence. In this nurturing space, you are gently held and challenged when needed.

My journey to mental healthcare

Throughout my life, I've had a desire to help people. I realized I had to dive deep and do my inner work before offering others support. My challenges became my biggest catalysts for growth, teaching me to navigate difficult experiences with greater ease.

My goals for you

We will work together to create the goals you want to reach. Throughout therapy, goals can be adjusted to reflect your current needs to ensure you're getting the most out of your sessions.

Our first session

During our first session, I want to get to know you. I'll gather basic background information, ask what brings you to therapy, what you want to accomplish, and discuss goal setting.
