Connor Pearce, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Connor!

Beginning with therapy can feel like a major step, & I commend you for starting your journey! I specialize in working with youth, families, and couples, and I love working with young men who are interested in exploring their emotional identity. I take a very collaborative approach to setting up a treatment plan so that I can meet you where you are.

My focus

I thoroughly enjoy working with kids, parents, and families. As a parent of two young children myself, I can relate to the self-doubt regarding whether we are doing the right thing with the various parenting techniques we employ.

My approach

I shape my approach to meet your unique needs. I generally use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as it provides helpful tools to build comfort and confidence in managing your emotional health.

My communication style

I provide clear, open communication with the goal of developing a safe, trusting relationship with my clients. I practice from a client-centered lens and always strive to understand each of my clients' individual needs so that I can ask thought-provoking questions to assist my clients in gaining a deeper understanding of themselves.

My goals for you

Setting goals that can be measured can be a vital step. Oftentimes, we are unable to see the progress we have made without having a reference point, so I strive to help you create SMART goals with periodic reviews that highlight the successes you have had!

Our first session

Our first session will be one of curiosity, open-mindedness, and open dialogue that allows you to get to know me just as much as I am getting to know you. I firmly believe that finding a therapist who is the right fit is critical, and I approach the first session with this as the priority.
