Getting to know John Garcia

Hi! My name is John Garcia, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Orange County, CA. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from California Baptist University. I seek to support individuals through the process of improving mental health, addressing difficulties, and adjusting to life changes and crises. My philosophy is that no single approach is right for every individual. I pride myself on blending elements from different approaches and tailoring treatment to each client's unique needs. My approach When we experience severe trauma or stress, life can become a day-to-day struggle. Our normal coping mechanisms and support systems may fail or no longer be enough to help us through difficult times. I strive to help my clients make positive changes using various modalities that promote healing. I focus on helping clients work through their unique barriers and untangle behavioral patterns that prevent them from discovering their own solutions. My focus I have experience working with English- and Spanish-speaking individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in supporting clients facing relationship problems, trauma, anxiety, and those seeking to improve their lives by breaking down old patterns. My communication style My communication style adapts to each client's background, culture, and personality. I understand that communication is situational and influenced by role adaptations, environment, and personal stressors. I practice active listening, offer empathy, maintain a nonjudgmental attitude, display patience, validate clients' experiences and feelings, and use appropriate verbal and nonverbal communication techniques.
