Getting to know Ana Garcia

Hi there, I'm Ana! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have 21 years of behavioral health experience. I've learned that every individual has a story and unique life experiences. My role is to support your personal growth. My focus I work with adults and older adults in managing anxiety, stress, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, and grief & loss. My focus is supporting clients in improving all areas of life that contribute to one's overall well-being. My approach I use an integrative approach that draws from Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Seeking Safety, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Together, we’ll explore personalized strategies and tools to help you grow, thrive, and feel your best. My communication style I like to focus on emotional connection and creating a safe space for clients to express themselves. My goal is provide a calm, yet encouraging environment where you may feel comfortable in sharing freely and deeply. My journey to mental healthcare I have always gravitated towards helping roles. After working with adult and older adult populations, I've learned that every person has a story to tell, one with unique adversities. Becoming a provider has allowed me to be a part of one's journey in building resilience. My goals for you First, we'll explore your values in order to help us set your goals for therapy. Whether it's improving coping or healing from a specific situation, we'll identify what you'd like to achieve. Accountability in therapy promotes meaningful progress in your healing journey. Our first session During your first session, we’ll talk about what brings you to therapy and how you’d like therapy to positively impact your well-being. We'll identify what meaningful progress would look like for you. Feel free to ask questions. The goal is to get to know each other and see if we’d be a good fit.
