Patricia Cruz, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi I am Patricia Cruz, license numer, MFC41619. I have a flexible and collaborative style that works uniquely with you. Whether you would like to talk one time, or speak as many times as you wish. We'll problem solve, and come up with solutions that will get you to a place where you will be feeling better soon. My approach I approach counseling with focused sincerity and heartfelt joy. I use different methods, but lean towards Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Humanistic, Eclectic, and Brief Solutions Therapy model. My focus As a practitioner, I think of myself as a generalist and enjoy working with a wide variety of people across the lifespan with different challenges and symptoms. I particularly enjoy working with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, parenting and relationship challenges. My communication style I strive to create a safe and comforting space where our work can be done. I believe that each one of us has the capacity to heal and experience peace and wholeness. It takes bravery to reach out and allow someone else in on our personal healing journey. I believe in meeting people where they are, and equipping them with the tools they need. My journey to therapy I became a therapist because I love working with people. I love to problem solve and help people feel better. I'm human also, and have experienced bumps in the road as well. This gives me the experience to help you through these times from a real-life human perspective. If you're ready to start the journey to feel better, I'm ready to walk right alongside of you. My goals for you There isn't a one-size-fits-all model to care. I tailor-design a program for each individual client I work with. It’s all about meeting you where you are and getting you where you want to be! My first session with you Our first session will be focused on getting to know one another. I will ask you questions to help me understand more about you. You will have the opportunity to learn my style and ask any questions.
