Leticia Moreno, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Leticia!

I am happy to welcome you into family therapy. I thank you for giving me the opportunity as well as trusting me to guide you on your journey of self-discovery and healing.

My focus

Adults suffering from childhood trauma are very dear and interesting to me. Trauma generates emotions, and unless we process them, they become stuck in our mind and body. Instead of healing from the wounding event, the trauma stays in our body and mind, affecting our lives until we uncover it and deal with it.

My approach

I use a compassionate approach grounded in evidence-based practices that have assisted individuals in managing emotional and psychological challenges.

My communication style

It's the tone of empathy of caring for a person that is in need of a safe place, attempting and struggling to put words to the feelings and emotions.

My journey to mental healthcare

It has been a long journey for this therapist, as being a family therapist is my second passion. I was an elementary school teacher for 36 years. I completed my MFT degree and internship hours before I retired as a teacher and decided to start telehealth after that.

My goals for you

Setting clear, measurable therapy goals and objectives is fundamental to successful therapeutic outcomes; reaching them is a collaborative effort. Client/therapist as a team, have the opportunity to write them at the beginning of therapy, understanding that meaningful goals can significantly impact the effectiveness of the therapeutic process.

Our first session

First session is building rapport and trust. Getting to know my client and lots of listening at this point. Also, answering questions about therapy and what therapy can do for them.
