Getting to know Ivan Carrasco
Hi there, I'm Ivan!
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from National University. My approach to therapy is focused on helping you address the concerns that brought you here as efficiently as possible, so you can get back to living the life you want.
My approach
My approach to therapy depends on what you need and whether you are focusing on concerns from the past, present, or future. Traditionally, I begin with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and adjust to other styles based on what works best for you. Some other approaches I may use include DBT, Gestalt, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused therapy.
My focus
I work with clients who are going through changes or transitions in life and help them adapt to these shifts, such as graduating, moving, promoting, and relationship changes. I have worked with a diverse group of clients experiencing symptoms ranging from anger, anxiety, depression, grief, substance concerns, and trauma. In addition to traditional therapy, I also have a background that focuses on business, trauma, and Veterans.
My communication style
I strive to create a tone and environment that feels safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental. My sessions are relaxed yet intentional, designed to help clients feel comfortable and heard. Working with me often feels like having an honest, caring conversation with someone who genuinely believes in your ability to grow and thrive. I bring hopeful and empathetic energy to our work together, encouraging exploration and change at a pace that feels right for you. My ultimate goal is to provide a space where you can feel empowered to make meaningful progress toward the life you want.
