Fernando Vinuela, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Fernando!

I am a therapist with a Rogerian foundation. My areas of focus are anxiety, depression, family-stage changes, and immigrant families.

My focus

I have experience working with first and second-generation immigrant males and their families.

My approach

My approach to therapy utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rogerian, and Person-Centered therapies.

My communication style

My communication style is very relaxed, accepting, and motivating towards my clients.

My journey to mental healthcare

I help people bring lightness where it is dark, to help people free themselves no matter their situation, and to help people construct or regain a sense of meaning and agency. We have all been there and will be again. So, best be prepared.

My goals for you

I guide your short-term behaviors by challenging maladaptive schemata through reality testing to foster the attainment of your self-determined goals.

Our first session

During our first session together, we will become familiar with each other.
