Joanne Fleming Loyarte, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Joanne!

I am a bilingual, bicultural therapist passionate about empowering you to create the change you desire. Through a client-centered approach, I help you navigate and create the balance and connection you seek in your life.

My focus

I work with individuals navigating cultural expectations and personal choices. I help you explore how past experiences influence present and future relationships, and support you in balancing education, career, family responsibilities, and cultural expectations.

My approach

I utilize several theoretical orientations and theories, including but not limited to Psychodynamic, Attachment-Based, Cognitive Behavioral, Family Systems, Emotionally Focused, Solution-Focused, Narrative, and Client Centered.

My communication style

I create an environment that encourages hope and supports you in managing stressful situations. By listening and meeting you where you are, I help you assert yourself and identify your needs. Clients feel safe, encouraged, supported, and empowered to make the changes they desire.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey began as an educator, where I discovered the joy of witnessing transformation. I became a counselor driven by the privilege of supporting others on their journey to wellness. Through genuine connection and mindfulness, I provide therapy to individuals, couples, and families from all walks of life.

My goals for you

My goal is to help you navigate life's transitions with resilience and hope. I assist you by building on your strengths and meeting you where you are as you work toward balance and connection.

Our first session

During our first session, we begin the process of relating and understanding your reasons for therapy. Together, we identify your needs and goals. I offer services from anywhere you feel comfortable, using a secure platform for confidential video therapy.
