Hi there, I'm Monica!

I am a family and marriage therapist licensed in California with over 5 years of experience working as a Therapist. I look forward to working with you!

My approach

My therapeutic approach draws from attachment-based therapy, client-centered therapy, coaching, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), emotionally focused therapy (EFT), mindfulness-based techniques, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. I tailor my approach to best support each individual client's needs and goals.

My focus

I work with a wide range of clients, including preteens (ages 8-12), teenagers, and adult individuals. I have experience helping clients navigate concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, ADHD, trauma, and emotional abuse.

My communication style

I aim to create a supportive, non-judgmental space where you feel heard and understood. Through empathetic and collaborative communication, we will work together to identify your goals, build upon your strengths, and develop effective coping strategies to create positive change in your life.

My journey to mental healthcare

I earned my Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, driven by a deep desire to help others lead more fulfilling lives. With over 5 years of clinical experience, I have had the privilege of supporting diverse clients in overcoming challenges and achieving personal growth.

My goals for you

My goal is to empower you with the tools and insights needed to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, improve your relationships, and enhance your overall well-being. Together, we will work towards building resilience, self-awareness, and the ability to navigate life's challenges with greater ease and confidence.

My first session with you

During our first session, we will focus on getting to know each other and establishing a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust and collaboration. I will listen attentively to your story, concerns, and hopes for therapy. We will discuss your goals and begin to develop a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve the positive changes you desire.
