Getting to know Manuel D. Gutierrez-Navarrete

Hi there, I'm Manuel! My name is Manuel Gutierrez-Navarrete. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am currently working on earning my Psy.D. in child psychology. I have been working with the community at different levels for over 20 years, and I have a passion for change and moving forward from life experiences. My approach My approach to therapy is one that is primarily client directed but therapist-supported. I like to provide a safe space to process life's experiences with the hope of allowing the client to identify how life's circumstances have impacted their present mental health and identification of adaptive coping skills that can lead to change. My focus My ideal client is a person who shows up to sessions with the thought that a session is a place of respite where they can evaluate past and current experiences that challenge their growth and affect their daily mood. My communication style I am a calm presence in the room, and my voice is soothing and supportive. I am receptive to the information being relayed with the intent to identify underlying issues that may be in the unconscious. My journey to therapy I have always considered myself a "helper" and have always had the disposition to help others. Doing therapy work and seeing the client's change has been rewarding. I have been trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I have experience with play therapy, and currently working on my Psy.D. in Psychodynamic therapy. My goals for you Returning as close as possible to the client's baseline before the current crisis. Reducing symptoms to support the client in reintegration to what the client could consider normal functioning. My first session with you The first session is typically used to understand the client's pressing issues that have brought the client to therapy. If necessary, I will provide coping skills to reduce the client's symptoms and inject hope into the change process.
