What should a new client know about working with you?

My name is Guzel, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Calabasas, California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master's in Clinical Psycology. I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, addictions and personality disorders. I use psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help my clients cope with current challenges, heal from past experiences, and envision a better future for themselves.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My approach to therapy varies based on each client's needs. I create a collaborative atmosphere where we work together as a team to progress toward their goals. I have found that my style works well with adults facing life transitions, past hurts from families or relationships, or unhealthy coping behaviors. These challenges often present as anxiety, low energy, chronic numbness or pain, fear about the future, and reliance on substances. I work alongside my clients to navigate these transitions and build skills that help them feel better about themselves today while fostering a vision of strength, satisfaction, and hope for the future. My communication style is calm, accommodating, and reassuring. I want my clients to feel comfortable sharing anything with me, and I pride myself on listening without judgment. I welcome you to reach out for a free consultation.
