Andrea Nunez, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Andrea!

I am committed to empowering individuals to build healthier relationships with themselves and others. As a Christian therapist, I create space for you to explore your story and grow in self-understanding and compassion.

My focus

I help individuals explore their unique stories and nurture self-understanding. I am passionate about addressing relationship issues in family dynamics, romantic partnerships, and interpersonal connections, guiding you toward healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

My approach

I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Gottman relationship approaches, DBT principles, and EMDR-informed techniques with biblical principles to support your healing.

My communication style

Strong communication is essential to effective therapy. I establish safety, trust, and understanding through empathy, compassion, and active listening so I can best serve you.

My journey to mental healthcare

I deeply believe we are relational beings who thrive when we feel truly known and loved. Through life lessons, I have become dedicated to assisting individuals on their journey toward personal growth and healing.

My goals for you

Goal-setting is a collaborative process. Goals can shift and change, so we will explore them at varying intervals to measure your growth over time.

Our first session

The initial session serves as a foundation for our work together. We will explore your story, areas of concern, how you have navigated your journey thus far, and your hopes, dreams, and desires.
