Virginia Barbosa Mascorro, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Virginia!

I’m a licensed bilingual English/Spanish therapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with clarity and confidence. I work with adults and young adults experiencing life transitions, self-doubt, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma.

My focus

I work with adults and young adults who are navigating life transitions, stress, change, spiritual awareness, and self-doubt. I support clients experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma by helping them build resilience, develop coping skills, and gain clarity as they move toward healing and personal growth.

My approach

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. I work to create a culturally aware, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe exploring their experiences. I strive to create a supportive space where you focus on building insight, practical skills, and meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, supportive, and client-centered, meeting you where you are in a safe and nonjudgmental space. I practice active listening and validation so you feel heard, respected, and understood. My empathy, compassion, and dedication allow me to truly step into your shoes and support your growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to becoming a therapist through my own lived resilience and experiences with life transitions, significant change, and trauma. Mindfulness- and CBT-based approaches helped me challenge unhelpful thoughts and develop healthier coping skills. Today, I’m motivated to reduce suffering and share tools that support healing, growth, and hope.

My goals for you

I collaborate with clients to set meaningful goals that reflect their needs, values, and personal preferences. I acknowledge that goals can evolve, and we revisit them as growth and life changes occur. I support motivation and progress by adjusting our approach to fit each client’s needs and growth.

Our first session

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you and understanding what brings you to therapy in a calm, supportive space. We’ll collaborate to identify goals and create a doable plan with small, achievable steps. It’s normal to feel nervous, and we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
