Alicia Aguirre, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Alicia!

I know starting therapy can feel scary, but I'm here to provide a safe and comfortable space for you. I listen without judgment and support you every step of the way. When you're ready, please reach out to get started.

My focus

I work with children, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds, including those struggling with depression, anxiety, anger, and trauma. I also support couples and families, and I'm passionate about serving minority and LGBTQ communities.

My approach

I tailor my approach to your unique needs, meeting you where you are. Together, we'll identify what works best to help you reach your goals. I draw from various methods to create a collaborative path forward that feels right for you.

My communication style

I'm open, honest, and non-judgmental in my communication. I listen and support you while also being direct, helping you reflect on your experiences and the changes you'd like to make in your life.

My journey to mental healthcare

My own life experiences inspired me to help others through their trials. I wanted to create a safe, non-judgmental space for people who feel lost, confused, or stuck. Witnessing clients grow, gain strength, and find confidence again is the most rewarding part of this work.

My goals for you

I believe in partnering with you and collaborating throughout therapy. Together, we identify goals and adjust them as needed. We adapt to new priorities and changes as they appear, ensuring therapy stays aligned with what matters most to you.

Our first session

Our first session is about getting to know each other. I'll learn your history and what brings you to therapy while building rapport with you. I'll answer your questions and explain the process. It's normal to feel nervous, and I'll help you feel as comfortable as possible.
