Ana Boydstun, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Ana!

I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and to support your healing journey. My passion is working with individuals who have been impacted by complex trauma and major life transitions. Most importantly, I want to provide a safe and comfortable space for your therapy journey.

My focus

I have worked with teens and adults and have expertise in trauma and women's issues.

My approach

I utilize Dialectical Behavior Therapy(DBT), Solution-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and trauma-focused approaches.

My communication style

My goal is to honor and model honest, open, and effective communication in a safe and comfortable space. I want this to be a partnership and collaboration towards your therapeutic growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

I believe many of us in the healing field have navigated through challenging circumstances and have a desire for healing, growth, and self-awareness. I have dedicated my career to the social services and mental health fields.

My goals for you

I work collaboratively with my clients to assist them with identifying desired goals and outcomes. I recognize that as you move through the therapy process, your desired goals may fluctuate and evolve.

Our first session

The therapy process starts with an intake in which treatment goals will be identified. Joining with you and building rapport at the onset of your therapeutic journey is a priority.
