Getting to know Tessa Magill
Hi there, I'm Tessa!
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist dedicated to helping teens and adults manage anxiety and navigate life’s challenges—from relationship struggles to fostering self-love. My approach blends traditional talk therapy, practical skill-building, and mindfulness, creating a compassionate space for self-discovery, emotional processing, and developing healthier habits to support your growth.
My approach
I focus on self-reflection and practical steps to help clients reach their goals. I create a supportive, non-judgmental space where you feel heard and understood while working on healthy coping strategies. Using talk therapy and problem-solving techniques, I help clients break old patterns and build new, more helpful habits.
My focus
I specialize in working with teens and adults, focusing on anxiety reduction, adolescent challenges, women’s issues, self-love, personal empowerment, and overcoming feelings of disconnection.
My communication style
I strive to create a warm, supportive, and thoughtful space where clients feel truly seen and heard. By understanding each person’s unique needs and goals, I foster a collaborative environment that encourages growth, healing, and meaningful progress.
My journey to mental healthcare
From a young age, I was drawn to listening, processing feelings, and helping resolve problems in my life and others’. A high school psychology class confirmed my passion for this field. This led me to earn a bachelor’s from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and a master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from California Lutheran University. Becoming a licensed therapist has enabled me to do the work I’ve always felt called to—helping others feel well.
My goals for you
Together, we’ll create approachable, personalized goals that reflect what you want to change.
