Amanda Terronez, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Amanda!

I believe the therapeutic relationship is essential to therapy. Together, we will work to accomplish the goals you have for yourself. It can be difficult to find the time, money, and energy to find the right therapist. I am available to do teletherapy via web-based programs.

My focus

I am comfortable working with both adults and adolescents. Working on school campuses, I've gained much experience working with teenagers and dealing with school concerns, as well.

My approach

I believe the therapeutic relationship is essential to therapy. Together, we will work to accomplish the goals you have for yourself. I believe that your core beliefs about yourself will impact the way you behave and feel; therefore, by considering and examining these beliefs, you can gradually alter them.

My communication style

I believe that we can all use someone to support us in processing our thoughts and feelings.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a mental health therapist because I know the importance of being able to speak your truth without fear of judgment and criticism.

My goals for you

Together, we will work to accomplish the goals you have for yourself. By examining your core beliefs, you can gradually alter behaviors and emotions. I practice Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a client-centered foundation, and I am also skilled in Motivational Interviewing.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll focus on building a therapeutic relationship and understanding what brings you to therapy. We'll discuss your goals and begin exploring how we can work together to support you on your journey.
