Veronica Oros-Navarro, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Veronica!

I work with adults, teens, children, and families, offering bilingual therapy in English and Spanish. I specialize in helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, behavioral challenges, and self-harm using evidence-based approaches tailored to each person's needs.

My focus

I work best with teens, young adults, and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, past trauma, life transitions, and stress. I teach new skills and help you navigate your own path to healing and a more meaningful life.

My approach

I focus on exploring your strengths and abilities to promote meaningful change. I use Motivational Interviewing to help you find motivation for positive growth, Psychoeducation to understand your experiences and treatment options, and CBT to identify troubling patterns and increase awareness of thoughts, emotions, and beliefs.

My communication style

My style is calm, clear, and empathic. I provide positive feedback while being culturally sensitive and attentive to your unique background. I use active listening and create a nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable sharing personal information. I openly discuss your readiness and adapt to your individual needs and goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist after struggling as a teen to find someone who truly understood me during that challenging transition. I've always been drawn to helping people through difficult times, and witnessing clients recover their mental health remains the most rewarding part of my work.

My goals for you

I set goals collaboratively, working together as a team whether you need support creating goals or generating new ideas. I start by building trust and creating a safe environment. Over time, we review progress and adjust goals as needed to ensure we're moving in the right direction.

Our first session

The first session focuses on building our relationship and understanding what brings you to therapy. I'll ask questions to better understand your situation and make clarifications as needed. I'm thoughtful about your unique needs to ensure you receive the best support possible.
