Getting to know Alma Tejeda Bolanos

Hi, my name is Alma Tejeda, LMFT 136038. I am a bilingual (Spanish/English), first-generation Latina psychotherapist based in Southern California, specializing in Latinx family systems and individual adult therapy. I earned my Bachelor's degree from the University of California, Irvine. My approach I take an eclectic approach, including cognitive behavioral therapy (exploring how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected), attachment-based psychodynamic, and person-centered approaches to meet each individual's needs. My focus I enjoy working with both individuals and families who have experienced past trauma and suffer from depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, perfectionism, and could benefit from parenting support. My communication style My priority is to provide a non-judgmental, genuine, naturally flowing, safe space for clients to open up, gain insight, share reflections, and develop skills to help meet their therapy goals. My journey to therapy I feel that my career as a psychotherapist was chosen for me. From a very young age, I experienced numerous struggles and hardships that I managed to overcome through resilience and a positive mindset. Mental health has played a significant role in my life, tracing back to my ancestors. I am incredibly grateful for having navigated those challenges, as they ultimately guided me toward pursuing this profession, where I can assist others in overcoming adversity. I also had the privilege of being supported by an exceptional therapist who guided me out of a profound state of depression. My goals for you Goal setting is made through collaborative and mutual agreement and discussion. My first session with you We will complete and review initial intake assessment paperwork and questionnaires to better understand and assess your needs.
