Getting to know Madalina Stancu

Hi there! My name is Madalina Stancu, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (#16412) in California. I hold a Master's in Counseling from Grand Canyon University. I am excited to meet you and walk alongside you on your journey as we work through day-to-day stressors, anxiety, depression, building up your self-esteem, and strengthening relationships. My approach to therapy is very down-to-earth and client-centered. I focus on building a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients, as this is a key factor in treatment success. I meet clients where they are on their journey and am here to guide and provide the resources and tools needed to become the best version of themselves. I use tools and techniques from a wide range of modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Rogerian, Compassion-focused, and strength-based approaches. Over the past 4 years in private practice, I have helped adults, 18 years and older, overcome fears, worries, hopelessness, and helplessness that kept them stuck and unable to create the life they envisioned. I assist clients in letting go of people-pleasing tendencies, focusing more on their needs, and building assertive interpersonal skills to empower themselves. If you are struggling with mild to moderate anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief and loss, low self-esteem, or relationship struggles, you have come to the right place. I look forward to getting to know you and creating a tailored plan for your needs. I believe the interaction between client and therapist should be one of mutual respect. I am down-to-earth, easygoing, and approach all my clients with empathy and understanding. I offer a judgment-free space, as you are the author of your story, and I am here to offer you the tools to create the best narrative. During our first session together, we will gather important information about you to begin this process.
