Getting to know Barbara Neal

My license number is LMFT #101600, and I am based in California. I have been a therapist for over 15 years. My passion for doing therapy stems from my desire to see others happy and make a positive impact in the world. I want to help others improve their well-being by learning to navigate life challenges and manage their lives, take charge of their own feelings and emotions, and have healthy, stable relationships by providing support, hope, and guidance. My approach My therapeutic approach is personalized to your needs and rooted in the latest research to help you gain the tools and confidence to navigate life. My most used therapeutic approaches are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment-based, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). My focus I typically work with adults who have experienced trauma or are dealing with anxiety, depression, BPD, and grief and loss. I also work with couples experiencing infidelity, a breakdown in communication, conflict, and money issues. My communication style Being non-judgmental in my communication provides a safe space for others to open up and share their thoughts and feelings honestly, fostering a deeper connection and better understanding. I also use open and honest communication with respect and empathy for those I'm speaking with to build trust and encourage vulnerability. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist was fueled by my own personal experience with trauma and healing, and my ability to listen and empathize with others. I have a passion for helping others overcome obstacles to happiness and live the life they see themselves living. My goals for you My approach to goal setting is collaborative and person-centered. I like to start by providing psychoeducation on what you're experiencing and why to help you gain clarity on what your goals are. Together, we will then identify and develop treatment goals and objectives.
