Getting to know Maria Magdalena Cervantes

Hi there, I'm Maria Magdalena! Hello, it’s a pleasure to meet you! My name is Maria Cervantes, and I am a licensed clinical social worker providing teletherapy in California. I have been an LCSW since 2009, specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Smith College, which laid the foundation for my commitment to evidence-based mental health care. My approach My practice is dedicated to supporting individuals struggling with depression, anxiety disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I work collaboratively with clients to foster personal growth and emotional resilience in a safe, non-judgmental environment where they feel supported and empowered. My focus I focus on treating adults dealing with depression, anxiety disorders, and OCD, using CBT and DBT to provide practical tools and coping strategies. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist because I’ve witnessed the profound impact of healing and personal growth on people’s lives. Seeing individuals overcome their struggles and find a path to a better place inspired me deeply. I wanted to be part of that transformative process and help others experience the same positive changes. Supporting people as they work through their challenges and achieve their goals is incredibly fulfilling. My goals for you My approach to goal setting is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices. By integrating CBT and DBT, I help clients develop practical tools to improve their mental health and overall quality of life. My first session with you During your first therapy session with me, you can expect a warm and welcoming environment where your comfort and trust are priorities. We’ll begin by discussing your reasons for seeking therapy and any specific concerns or goals you might have. This is also an opportunity for me to understand your background.
