Getting to know Martha Corleto Valdez

Hello all! I am a mental health therapist based in Southern California, in the field for 5 years. My experience has been in community mental health with children and adolescents. I enjoy speaking to my clients and going at their pace and respecting clients' choices. I have worked with ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, and ODD behaviors. My approach I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Psychodynamic therapy to help clients understand themselves better and unlearn maladaptive behaviors they may have, with compassion. My focus If you struggle to express yourself, find yourself worried about the future, process past traumas, and navigate systems for the first time, I would be honored to assist you in reaching your personal goals for growth through self-compassion and knowledge about coping strategies. My communication style I prioritize client comfort and use a very conversationalist style to assist with making the therapeutic space feel more open and welcoming. My journey to mental healthcare I have always found great joy in helping people in any way that I could. As I navigated my early adulthood, I gravitated towards the mental health field because I witnessed how important it was to help my community realize mental health is real, and it's time we finally addressed it. My goals for you I engage with clients on a collaborative approach to determine the goals that you want to work on. My first session with you First sessions, I really enjoy having light conversations about what brings you to therapy and working to determine what has worked in the past and what has not. I enjoy learning fun facts about my clients that make them unique and really use the basis of their personalities as a strength to achieve goals.
