Ana Aguirre, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Ana!

I am a bilingual Spanish-speaking therapist passionate about helping individuals find solutions to difficult problems and developing healthy coping mechanisms.

My focus

I collaborate with clients to empower them in overcoming their feelings of depression and anxiety. By employing a diverse range of techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, effective stress management, and strategies to enhance self-worth, I guide them toward a brighter, more fulfilling life.

My approach

My approach is client-centered, focusing on the client's needs while helping them develop healthy self-perceptions and strengthen their relationships.

My communication style

I aim to use an assertive communication style to create a safe and open environment for clients, allowing them to express their needs, wants, and feelings clearly and respectfully.

My journey to mental healthcare

I am empathetic with individuals struggling and feeling emotionally and mentally burdened to improve their mental health by overcoming trauma and developing healthy coping mechanisms.

My goals for you

I assist clients in establishing therapeutic goals that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound (SMART).
