Andreea Tomescu, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Andreea!

I have been working in the Mental Health field. I am trained in CBT, DBT, and Strategic, structural, and experiential psychotherapy. I have had the privilege to work with various groups of individuals with ages ranging from 5 years old to 90 years old.

My focus

I have extensive experience with severe mental illness. In addition, I work with individuals experiencing symptoms of grief, trauma, mood disorders, and relationship problems.

My approach

Therapy is tailored to your needs and wishes. At times, CBT and DBT skills are needed; at times, problem-solving and client-centered therapy is used. We work together to find what fits best for you.

My communication style

During sessions, individuals and therapists work as a team to provide much-needed support and explore new ways to improve functioning and achievement of clients' goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I am licensed both in the USA and in Europe. I am a licensed psychologist and LMFT in Europe and a licensed LMFT in California. I chose this profession in my early 20s and have loved it ever since. Therapy is not a job for me; it is my passion.

My goals for you

The first session is geared towards getting to know you with your needs, symptoms, and challenges. During this session we will discuss your desires and needs, which will lead to setting goals for therapy.

Our first session

During the first session, both client and therapist will use the time to get to know each other, and the therapist will use the time to gain an understanding of the client's needs and the client's wishes.
