Iliana Chavez, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Iliana! Hola, I am a bilingual Latinx therapist with a Master's in Psychology from Mount Saint Mary's. I am passionate and dedicated to supporting individuals in learning how to silence the chatter from society and the world in order to find their true inner voice and inner guidance. I trust that each person can learn how to trust themselves and slowly begin to embody their authenticity. My approach My approaches to therapy include client-centered, heart-centered, mindfulness, humanistic, Jungian, transpersonal, existential, experiential, psychodynamic, somatic, spirituality, and some parts of CBT, justice-centered, and trauma-informed. My focus I work with individuals ages 11-70+ and specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, grief/bereavement, anger, and relationship issues. My communication style I create an intentional, safe, nonjudgmental space for people to talk about the most difficult parts of themselves and life. I provide compassion and empathy for all of your experiences to facilitate acceptance and integration of all parts of you. My journey to mental healthcare I am a first-generation Mexican American in the US. My personal struggles in life and witnessing the challenges my loved ones have encountered led me to pursue a career in the art of therapy to equip myself with tools that support inner healing and to share these tools with those I am fortunate to cross paths with. My goals for you I believe you are the expert and no one knows you better than yourself. Thus, I collaborate with you by asking in-depth questions that help you identify the goals you would like to set for yourself and that can lead to a more fulfilling and purposeful life. My first session with you I provide a warm space, welcoming all parts of you that you would like to share, and focus on building a connection with you through compassion, empathy, unconditional regard, and humor.
