Manuel Zermeño, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Manuel!

Please call me Manny. My approach to my clients is relational, and it's important to build and establish rapport.

My focus

I enjoy working with the LGBTQIA+ community and am comfortable working with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

My approach

I am CBT-oriented and work hard to build and establish trust and a therapeutic alliance.

My communication style

I'm friendly and engaging in sessions, I ask questions, and open to leading sessions or taking a step back and letting the client identify topics to discuss.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was inspired through my own therapy journey to want to help others reach their goals. I benefited from my own experience and want others to succeed, grow, and learn as well.

My goals for you

I am collaborative with my clients and provide guidance and feedback in the goal-setting discussion.

Our first session

While I'll be intent on collecting necessary data, I'll also be forthcoming in asking questions related to the intake and getting to know you.
