Getting to know Kristene Luna

Hi there, I'm Kristene! Hello! I'm Kristene Luna, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I earned my Master's in Social Work from California State University San Marcos. For the past seven years, I've been working with individuals just like you to navigate life's challenges and find greater peace and well-being. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or big life changes, I'm here to support you every step of the way. My approach As a bilingual therapist, I provide therapy in both English and Spanish. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts and emotions. I'm trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which is especially effective for trauma. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing to tailor our sessions to your needs. My focus I'm best positioned to serve clients navigating life transitions, struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or trauma. I work with individuals across the lifespan and have experience supporting adolescents, young adults, and families in improving coping skills and relationships. My communication style In sessions with me, you can expect a warm, non-judgmental environment where you feel heard and supported. I practice active listening and empathy to help you express your thoughts and feelings freely, often incorporating humor to make sessions lighter and more relaxed. Together, we'll set goals based on your unique needs.
