Getting to know Dannielle Cervantes

Hi there, I'm Dannielle! My name is Dannielle Cervantes, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Oaks College and 10 years of experience in the field. I am passionate about providing empathetic, compassionate, unconditional support to individuals, couples, and families in their healing journey. My expertise lies in treating a wide range of concerns, including trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, and life transitions. I am committed to creating a safe and inclusive space for all clients, tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual. I utilize humor, playfulness, and understanding as tools to help clients feel better. My approach is warm and easy-going, which creates a space where people feel at ease to discuss and explore the issues that brought them to therapy. I actively engage and meet clients where they are, working to create a space that allows them to find solutions to the challenges they face. As an MFT, I explore how past experiences or traumas shape a person's life, behaviors, and relationships. I am a trauma specialist and work from a trauma-informed perspective, utilizing approaches that promote safety, healing, and shifting old patterns of behavior. I integrate mindfulness skill training and foster self-awareness to promote change. I recognize and respect the cultural backgrounds and experiences that shape each client's perspective. Strength-based work is woven throughout all sessions, focusing on resilience, strength, and empowerment to promote growth. Using these approaches, I help people explore and heal old wounds that may be causing current issues. I have experience working with pre-teens and adolescents, supporting young people with emotional and behavioral challenges.
