Ana Gallardo, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Ana! My name is Ana Gallardo, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I provide telehealth services for clients nationwide. I work with adults and children, specializing in mood and anxiety disorders and post-traumatic stress. I earned my Master?s in Mental Health Counseling from California State University Long Beach. The theoretical orientations I use most in my practice are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to reduce anxiety and mood disorders, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for PTSD and trauma-related experiences by replacing negative memories with positive ones. My goal for you is to teach you tools that you can use to better help yourself. My approach The theoretical approach I use mostly in my practice is EMDR. My passion is helping individuals who have been through stressful and traumatic experiences. I help clients who feel trapped by recent or childhood memories. Sometimes we just need someone to help us with the necessary tools to connect with our own inner strength when facing life?s challenges. You are not alone; together we can explore and resolve the hardships in your life, and we can find the cause of your emotional pain and patterns that no longer serve you. My focus I specialize in the needs of women, children, and adolescents, with an emphasis on sexual abuse, childhood traumas, mood/anxiety disorders, postpartum depression, and relationship issues. Even though we can?t change what happens, individuals do not have to go through years of suffering. It?s important to know that they do have the capacity to heal and move forward in their lives. My communication style My job as a therapist is to connect with clients, get to know what their main issues are, and help find solutions to the challenges they are facing. I want clients to know that during a therapy session, my goal is to help them feel at ease and that they can choose to talk about whatever they feel comfortable sharing.
