Getting to know Deena Madrid

Hi there, I'm Deena! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in San Diego, California. I work with adolescents and adults statewide via telehealth. I earned my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from Bethel University. My focus in practice is working with anxiety, depression, and trauma-related symptoms using an integrative, collaborative, and client-centered approach. My approach My approach to therapy is integrative, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Tailoring treatment to the unique needs of each client while maintaining a strong evidence-based foundation is important in my practice. By integrating these modalities, I strive to create a balanced approach that addresses thought patterns, emotional resilience, and trauma processing. My focus I've predominantly worked with adolescents and young adults from diverse backgrounds. I work with individuals navigating a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I am particularly passionate about supporting those who struggle with overwhelming thoughts, emotional distress, and past traumatic experiences that continue to impact their daily lives. My communication style My communication style is warm and compassionate. I strive to create a safe and supportive space while meeting clients where they are, using clear and nonjudgmental language. I prioritize authenticity and transparency, fostering a therapeutic relationship built on trust and mutual respect. My journey to mental healthcare My first job at a children's residential facility attracted me to the world of mental health. Working with resilient families and individuals of all backgrounds gifted me the passion to see true change through trauma work. These children and their families have given me the drive to do this work.
