Gauri Sanchez, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Gauri!

I'm passionate about supporting my clients through the journey of life, healing, and transformation. I believe in collaboratively working with clients to enhance their self-understanding, self-love, and self-empowerment.

My focus

I am experienced with working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, life challenges/transitions, relationship problems, victims of crimes, and grief.

My approach

My approach is client-centered, providing support, empathy, and unconditional positive regard along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Grief Counseling.

My communication style

I'm passionate about creating a comfortable therapeutic partnership and providing a safe and nonjudgmental space where clients can feel open and welcome to share their unique life stories.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a first-generation Latina mental health therapist, I'm passionate about reducing the stigma of mental health, and I have a great understanding of the importance of positive support, guidance, and self-love that each person needs to thrive and evolve in the journey of life.

My goals for you

I believe in working collaboratively with my clients to identify treatment priorities/goals.

Our first session

Our first session will focus on building rapport- getting to know each other, understanding what helps each client feel welcome and comfortable, gaining an understanding of what is working and areas that need strengthening in each client's life, and setting the goals for treatment.
