Getting to know Preethi Morales

Hi there, I'm Preethi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Los Angeles, California, providing telehealth services statewide. I earned my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from California State University Long Beach. I work with all age groups, from toddlers to seniors, though most of my experience is with children and adolescents. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, and more. **My approach** My therapeutic approach depends on each client's unique needs. I frequently use CBT and Solution Focused Therapy, intertwining a strength-based perspective. These modalities help build confidence in the work we do together. **My focus** I have found my style to be a good fit for children, adolescents, and adults. While much of my work has been with younger clients, I support individuals from all walks of life. Whether addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, behavioral issues, or productivity, I work collaboratively with clients to manage thoughts and feelings and develop skills to feel better. **My communication style** My communication is understanding, calm, and reflective. I want clients to feel safe and trust the therapeutic relationship we build. **My journey to mental healthcare** What inspired me to become a therapist was losing my mother at a young age and experiencing therapy that wasn't helpful. Since then, I have committed to providing others with the support and positive impact they deserve. **My goals for you** Goal setting in therapy is based on each client's needs and desires. Together, we create goals that are attainable and meaningful. **My first session with you** During our first session, I'll ask you to share what brings you to therapy and how you've been feeling. This helps us start building a foundation for your healing journey.
