Leticia McCurtis, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Leticia!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am passionate about working with clients to help them identify the root causes of their distress while providing a safe and person-centered environment they can use to enable growth and help them reach their desired life goals.

My focus

If you're navigating anxiety, stress, depression, or the weight of trauma, I’m here to help. Whether you're facing relationship issues or a major life transition, I offer a safe, person-centered space to process it all. Together, we’ll move at your pace to ease the stress and find your path forward. You don't have to carry the heavy shifts alone.

My approach

I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where you are the expert on your own life. My approach is deeply collaborative; I’m not here to tell you who to be, but here to walk alongside you as you rediscover your own inner wisdom and strength. Together, we’ll navigate your journey at your pace, ensuring you feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to grow.

My communication style

I communicate with a warm, non-judgmental curiosity that puts your voice first. My style is rooted in active listening and genuine empathy. I’m not here to lead, but to walk alongside you. You can expect a transparent, authentic, down-to-earth conversation where you are the expert, ensuring you feel safe, heard, and respected in every conversation.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to therapy after realizing our hurdles can become our greatest strengths. Having faced my own trauma and stress, I know the courage it takes to be vulnerable and heal where we hurt most. My personal path of healing fuels my passion for helping you discover your own, providing the genuine support I know is so vital for the journey.

My goals for you

We work together to identify goals that reflect your deepest values and reflect what success looks like to you. I help you translate overwhelming feelings into clear, manageable intentions that align with the life you want to build. We’ll regularly check in to make sure our focus remains on the growth that feels most authentic to you.

Our first session

Our first session is a gentle intake where we’ll get to know each other at your pace. We’ll discuss what brings you in and what you hope to gain, but there’s no pressure to share everything at once. It’s a collaborative space to ensure you feel safe, heard, and comfortable as we begin to map out your path toward healing together.
