Getting to know Alejandra Cardoso-Aguilera

My name is Alejandra Cardoso-Aguilera, and I am a licensed Marriage Family Therapist in the State of California. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Mount Saint Mary's University LA (Chalon Campus). My approach in therapy centers on providing clients with unconditional positive regard and a safe space to discuss their emotional well-being. The common theoretical approaches I incorporate in therapy are CBT and Psychodynamic. I like to focus on how our past impacts us now in the present moment with parents, family, friends, and work environment. I work with clients who are transitioning into adulthood and college. I enjoy supporting clients struggling with depression and anxiety. My communication style is soft-spoken and empathetic, and I like to incorporate reflective listening. I am passionate about providing clients with a safe space to process their thoughts and feelings. I love helping clients develop skills to feel comfortable managing their emotions and daily stressors. I like to remind clients that this is their treatment, and they have full autonomy over what they would like to work on. I often ask if there is a pressing issue they would like to address in treatment. In our first session, you can expect open-ended questions to gather information for assessment and to help conceptualize treatment goals.
