Getting to know Katrina Escalera

Hi there, I'm Katrina! I'm Katrina Escalera, a California-licensed marriage and family therapist with a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Loma Linda University. I am dedicated to creating a strong therapeutic relationship with individuals and families facing hardships. My approach I tend to be eclectic with my approach to therapy, from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to problem-solving therapy (PST). However, my overall foundation revolves around experiential therapy and interpersonal therapy (IPT). My focus Over the years, I have supported individuals experiencing difficulties in managing stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, communication, and trauma. My communication style I provide a safe, secure, and authentic place for individuals to explore the challenges in their lives as well as how they can overcome them. I am direct from the beginning about how transparent and collaborative I can be, emphasizing how welcome feedback is from them in order to ensure quality of care and meet their needs.
