Jacqueline Miranda, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Jacqueline!

My experience has been primarily with working with children and adolescents dealing with trauma and challenging life circumstances. I aim to provide a calm and safe environment to process traumatic situations and to help my clients achieve self-actualization.

My focus

I am happy to work with any client, of any age and any therapeutic concern. My experience has led me to specialize in Trauma-informed care, I have worked with clients who experienced early childhood trauma as well as more recent traumatic experiences. No matter how long ago it was, it is never too late to heal!

My approach

I take a person-centered (Rogerian/Humanistic) approach, which means that I aim to make each individual feel like they are heard! This is YOUR therapy, and my goal is to help you get the therapeutic experience you will most benefit from. I also work with CBT, TF-CBT, Strength-Based, and Solution-Focused theories.

My communication style

My goal is to provide a relaxed environment. Online therapy can be intimidating, but after years of Zoom experience during the pandemic, I am a pro at making a Zoom session feel like a traditional therapy session. Just grab your coffee, tea, or favorite snack and get ready to unload your stress!

My journey to mental healthcare

I have wanted to be a therapist since I was 12 years old, watching Freaky Friday and discovering the magic of therapy! Over the years, I have discovered that my passion for helping people heal from the hurt of the world is the most rewarding choice I could have made. Watching my clients rediscover their joy makes this the best job in the world.

My goals for you

Goals are different for every client, maybe you want to rediscover your inner peace. Maybe you want to create a new and better version of yourself. Or maybe you have no idea what you want out of therapy! But whatever your goals are, we will figure out how to get you there one step at a time.

Our first session

The first session is where we complete our intake, which means I will ask a lot of questions to help understand your background and what circumstances have led you to therapy. Feel free to ask any questions you may have, there are no wrong questions in therapy.
