Ana Ambriz, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Ana!

I am an LCSW currently accepting Spanish-speaking clients only. (LCSW actualmente aceptando clientes que hablan Español unicamente.)

My focus

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, grief, relationship concerns, and stress. (Trabajo con adultos que presentan ansiedad, depresión, estrés, cambios en la vida, duelo, dificultades en relaciones, y estrés. Ayudarte a crear confidencia y resilencia es mi motivacion.)

My approach

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and goal-oriented. (Mi enfoque es colaborativo, empático y orientado en metas.)

My communication style

I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard while also providing practical tools to help you move forward. (Me esfuerzo por crear un ambiente seguro, cálido y libre de juicios donde cada persona se sienta escuchada y ala misma vez ofrezco herramientas practicas para ayudarte a que sigas adelante.)

My journey to mental healthcare

I believe healing begins when people feel truly seen, heard, and understood. It’s a privilege to walk alongside you through this journey. (Creo que la sanacion comienza cuando las personas se siente verdaderamente vistas, escuchadas y comprendidas. Es un privilegio acompanarte mientras descubres fortalezas y generas cambios significativos.)

My goals for you

We will work together to create realistic, meaningful goals based on your priorities. We’ll review your progress and adjust the plan as your needs and strengths evolve. (Trabajaremos juntos para establecer metas realistas y significativas según tus prioridades y aspiraciones. Revisaremos el progreso y ajustaremos el plan conforme sea necesario.)

Our first session

During our first session, we’ll get to know each other, discuss what brings you to therapy, explore your goals, and develop a plan that feels comfortable and meaningful for you. (En la primera sesión hablaremos sobre lo que te trae a terapia, tus objetivos y tu historia para desarrollar un plan que se adapte a tus necesidades y prioridades.)
