Gabriela Morquecho, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Gabriela!

I support adults navigating anxiety, stress, and life changes. My goal is to help you work through everyday challenges and discover a sense of purpose that brings meaning to your life.

My focus

I enjoy working with adults of all ages who sometimes feel that anxiety, stress, or life changes are hindering their happiness. Being part of their journey to rediscover their passions is truly fulfilling for me.

My approach

I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into my practice. I provide psychoeducation to help you understand the root causes of your anxiety and the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through CBT, you'll acquire skills including relaxation techniques, stress management, and strategies to enhance your overall mood.

My communication style

I have become more attuned to the daily struggles people face. I've developed skills and knowledge in cultural competence and empathy, allowing me to treat each individual with care and respect.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path to becoming a therapist was shaped by a deep desire to support others through difficult times. I'm passionate about helping people find clarity and build resilience as they navigate life's challenges.

My goals for you

Goal setting is an ongoing conversation that will be reviewed each session to monitor progress. I will address any questions and adjust the goals as necessary. These are your goals, and I'm here to help you make them achievable.

Our first session

In our initial session, we will take the time to get to know each other through introductions and address any questions you might have. I will ask open-ended questions to understand your reasons for seeking treatment, and based on your responses, I will develop a personalized treatment plan.
