Getting to know Geraldine Pirdy

Hi there, I'm Geraldine! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California, License Number 160644. I have worked with and learned from clients in areas such as justice involvement, substance use issues, and veteran mental health, all of which share the common theme of trauma. I see clients in the context of their relationships and always explore My focus I am grateful for opportunities to engage with clients in therapy and learn from their narratives. I hope to collaborate with you to address difficulties, explore your capabilities, and strengthen resilience, all while conceptualizing your lived experience through a relational lens. My approach My therapeutic approach is trauma-focused, eclectic, and relational. I’m always curious about you and your well-being. My communication style The topics discussed in therapy are often delicate and challenging, so I want to ensure you are met with humility, curiosity, and kindness. My journey to mental healthcare I have always been in a helping role across customer service and legal fields. Now that I'm in the mental health field, the value of helping remains the same, but it has also expanded to include roles in teaching, ongoing education, research, and advocacy. My goals for you I help clients reach their goals by engaging them in meaning-making about those specific goals, how those goals change if they do, their experiences as they achieve the small and big milestones, and, as importantly, what is next for them. Our first session Our first session will focus on assessing risks, identifying challenges, and explaining the parameters of therapy. It will lay the foundation and serve as our reference point moving forward, so we all understand what the process involves. We will also explore how the space I'm offering aligns with your goals.
