Christine Guerrero, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Christine!

I'm glad you're here. Making the decision to start therapy is an act of courage and finding the right fit matters. I am dedicated to helping individuals increase self awareness, gain insight, and foster personal growth and healing. Therapy is a deeply personal journey, and I am here to walk alongside you to create meaningful change.

My focus

I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, overwhelming stress, self-esteem challenges and relationship issues. My primary goal is to create a warm, supportive and truly collaborative environment. Together, we'll build a personalized and supportive plan for growth and healing.

My approach

Blended with compassion, my approach utilizes trauma-informed and attachment focused therapy to explore root patterns and heal relationship wounds. Together, we will integrate CBT and DBT for practical coping skills, alongside mindfulness practices to ground your nervous system, manage intense emotions and safely process daily stressors.

My communication style

In sessions, my communication style is reflective, compassionate, and intentional. I focus on creating a supportive space where you feel truly heard.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path began exactly where you are- choosing to face personal wounds and to do hard work to discover healing. My personal journey ignited my passion to help others and I learned firsthand that through genuine connection, support and safety, every individual possesses the capacity to grow, change, and heal.

My goals for you

To ensure our sessions are purposeful, I take notes to track your progress and map out a clear path forward, keeping us mindful of your goals and any barriers we need to navigate together.

Our first session

It is completely normal to feel nervous during our first session. This is simply a safe space for you to share what brought you to therapy and what is troubling you. Healing is a process, and you don't have to do it alone. I will walk alongside you every step of the way throughout our time together.
