Getting to know Eztli Herrera-Gardea

Hi! My name is Eztli (pronounced s-lee) Herrera, and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT). I earned my Master’s in Psychology and my Bachelor’s degree from California State University, Fullerton. My approach to therapy is meeting a person where they are and collaborating on agreed-upon goals. I am an evidence-based therapist, focusing on what has shown significance in treatment. I believe the body keeps the score and social relationships matter, so I encourage physical and social practice in my interventions. My approach I use various modalities, including Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), art, writing, mindfulness, psychodynamic, and positive psychology. I see a client’s strengths first and tailor therapy to their needs. I am a cheerleader for each client and their individual process. My focus I work with trauma symptoms, anxiety, depression, behavioral interventions, and grief. I have worked with youth of all ages and now primarily with adults, feeling comfortable treating either. For kids under 12, I find in-person sessions most useful for building trust and comfort. My communication style I offer visual examples, support, humor, curiosity, and space for clients to process their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I aim for clients to leave sessions feeling empowered and seen. My journey to mental healthcare I was not drawn to therapy until my practicum during my Clinical Psychology Master’s program at CSU Fullerton, where I saw the meaningfulness of allowing youth to be seen and heard. I had planned to pursue a Ph.D. to teach and research but was driven to support youth and families struggling. I am committed to providing space for others to lead the life they want.
