Erica Garcia, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Erica!

I support individuals and couples navigating life's challenges with compassion and understanding. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.

My focus

I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds, addressing a wide range of challenges. My approach is rooted in a multicultural, trauma-focused perspective, ensuring that therapy is personalized and empathetic to each individual's unique experiences and needs.

My approach

My therapeutic approach is tailored to the unique needs of each client. I draw from various evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), to help clients achieve meaningful and lasting change.

My communication style

My approach to therapy is collaborative, direct, and transparent. I focus on building a genuine, trusting relationship with my clients, creating a safe, accepting, and non-judgmental space that fosters growth and progress.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path to becoming a therapist was shaped by a deep commitment to understanding human connection and resilience. I believe in the power of therapy to transform lives and am honored to walk alongside clients on their healing journey.

My goals for you

Together, we'll identify your goals and develop practical strategies to help you move forward. I believe in your capacity for growth and will support you in building the skills and insights needed to create lasting change in your life.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll explore what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. I'll ask questions to understand your story and together we'll begin mapping out a path forward that feels right for you.
