Getting to know Andres Garcia

Hello. My name is Andres Garcia. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles, California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of California, Los Angeles, a Bachelor's degree from Whittier College, and an Associate's degree from Rio Hondo Community College. I work with adults of all ages and specialize in addiction, depression, trauma, and anxiety. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help my clients make progress and start feeling better. My approach My approach to therapy varies based on each client's needs. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to understand why you are coming to therapy and create a road map to your mental health well-being. My focus My style and approach fit adults dealing with life transitions and coping with difficult situations such as anxiety, depression, stress, anger, and frustration. I help clients navigate these transitions and build skills to feel better about themselves and develop a more positive outlook. My communication style My communication style is calm, understanding, and genuine. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking with me and not judged in session. My journey to mental healthcare In our first session, we will spend most of the time discussing what brought you to therapy and what may be contributing to your feelings. The first session is about making an initial connection and understanding the direction we need to support you. Everyone is different, and I listen first before assuming what will work best for you. My goals for you I became a therapist because when I needed help, I could not find or access professional support from folks who looked and sounded like me.
