Annette Unzueta, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Annette!

Welcome! Navigating through life's challenges can be overwhelming when you feel stuck. You may feel restless, unfulfilled, and maybe even feel like something is missing. My intention is to help you flourish and find your own sense of peace.

My focus

Do you find yourself feeling stuck? Are you open to trying something new and different? If you are seeking support in managing life stressors, changing patterns, and improving your relationships, I am here to help.

My approach

My style is one that is holistic, collaborative, culturally sensitive, and nonjudgmental. I utilize a variety of modalities, including family systems, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused, existential, and strength-based therapy.

My communication style

I come from a place of acceptance and curiosity. I prioritize open communication and empathy to create a safe environment where you get to explore your experiences and feelings without fear of judgment.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into therapy started with a deep curiosity about the human experience. I have had the opportunity to work with youth, families, trauma survivors, the LGBTQ+ community, and individuals who have been incarcerated. I am passionate about finding the light during dark and tumultuous times.

My goals for you

I believe healing and transformation happen with patience and guidance. I strive to provide a space where you can unpack, take the time to self-reflect, and build self-compassion. I am here to help support you in finding balance and creating a fulfilling life that aligns with your values.

Our first session

In the first session, we will get to know each other. We will have the opportunity to explore and discuss your goals in therapy. If you find yourself feeling nervous, it's completely normal. Change is scary, and you are more than welcome to ask questions. I will meet you where you are at and walk alongside your journey, one step at a time.
