Miriam Guijarro, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Miriam!

My goal is to provide a safe place to work out problems, issues, and other dilemmas of life. Therapy is an opportunity for growth and to find your own authentic self. I have specialties in the areas of grief, depression, stress, anxiety, and trauma; however have seen clients with a variety of issues.

My focus

I like working with adults and teenagers. The conditions I am most comfortable with are depression, anxiety, and trauma.

My approach

My approaches in therapy are using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused Therapy, and strength-based approaches to help clients get closer to reaching their goals.

My communication style

I like to provide clients with a safe space. I am an excellent listener. I like to keep open communication with clients. I like to keep my sessions as consistent as possible. My clients feel safe and comfortable coming to sessions.

My journey to mental healthcare

I enjoy working with others and enjoy seeing them grow into their authentic self. It feels great to see clients make progress one day at a time one thing at a time.

My goals for you

I use strength-based approaches to help client visualize their strengths to then be able to form their own goals.

Our first session

I hope to build rapport with client. The client will be validated and understood. The goal is to be a listener to be able to complete client's assessment and diagnosis to then be able to provide the best care possible.
