Jennifer Misirli, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Jennifer!

I love being a therapist, only second to being a mother. There is such power in connecting with people going through challenges, listening to what they want and need to change to help them live the lives they want.

My focus

I enjoy working with clients who are experiencing life stressors, addictions, shame, trouble connecting with others, and anxiety. I believe that connecting with my clients through genuine interest in their lives and goals helps the therapeutic process, as they feel seen for who they are.

My approach

My therapeutic approach focuses on childhood experiences, major life transitions, and attachment issues, and how they are affecting you in the present moment. I use a variety of theoretical approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment theory, and Narrative Therapy with my clients.

My communication style

Working with me feels like working with a non-judgmental person who enjoys laughter, honesty, and real conversation. I love asking questions and am skilled at picking up on cues that will lead to deep conversations.

My journey to mental healthcare

I realized I wanted to change careers and become a therapist. I went back to school while I was pregnant with my youngest child, and although it took me longer than I thought, I was finally able to achieve the goal of earning my degree.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting with clients in a holistic way. I believe that to know what goals you want to achieve, understanding your true self is what you get to discover on your path.

Our first session

In your first session is a time for you to share about yourself and for me to understand what has brought you to counseling. We will discuss what therapy will look like and answer any questions you have. Most importantly, it's a time to begin to focus on yourself and your healing process.
