Mario De Leon, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Mario!

Life is beautiful but it comes with challenges that could at times be overwhelming. Let's make those challenges less overwhelming and manageable.

My focus

I work with adults who are might be having difficulties with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, self-esteem or trauma.

My approach

I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to assist you in changing your view of current or past life's challenges.

My communication style

Your participation will be in safe non-judgmental environment where I will be attentive to the details of your concerns.

My journey to mental healthcare

Life is a challenge and we deal with those challenges with coping mechanisms. Proper coping mechanisms are healthy and necessary. I have experienced the positive effects of healthy coping mechanisms, and I want to assist willing individuals to deal with life's challenges with healthy coping skills.

My goals for you

You might not have a goal in mind at the beginning but one or a few will become apparent. Your goal or goals will be to on improve something that is important to you.

Our first session

Our first session is where you see if I'm worthy of your time. This is where you gage your comfort level with me and where I start to learn about you, your needs and goals. It is normal to feel nervous and uncomfortable talking to a stranger about personal issues, but comfort level and trust will grow session after session.
