Getting to know Nereida Medina

My name is Nereida Medina, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Redlands, California. I am currently working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults in individual and couples therapy, specializing in treating anxiety, depression, and relationship conflicts. I hold a Bachelor's degree from the University of California, Riverside, and an Associate's degree from Palo Verde College. My eclectic approach to therapy allows for a tailored experience that meets each individual's unique needs. I use evidence-based practices, most frequently Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy. These approaches help increase clients' self-awareness and reframe unhelpful narratives to promote healing and well-being. My style and approach are a good fit for young adults and adults facing life transitions, as well as couples struggling to communicate through ongoing stressors. I work to help clients navigate these periods, build problem-solving skills, and develop effective coping strategies to foster a more positive outlook on life. My communication style is calm, reflective, and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable sharing anything without fear of judgment. I strive to provide a safe and empathetic environment to support individuals through difficult times, and I enjoy witnessing their transformation into their authentic selves. When setting goals, I collaborate with clients to define what they want to accomplish during our time together. This process often begins by building rapport and identifying the core issues behind current struggles. Together, we set short-term goals and track progress over time. The first session is focused on building an initial connection because it's important that you feel comfortable with your therapist. I ask questions to gain an overview of your life and get to know you better, recognizing that each individual is different.
