Getting to know Virginia Barnett

My name is Virginia Barnet, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I hold a Master’s in Counseling from the University of Phoenix. My approach to therapy is centered on recognizing that every individual is unique. Treatment is not about fitting someone into specific categories but about truly understanding what my clients are experiencing, without judgment. My approach I believe no one fits into just one therapeutic model, which is why I take an eclectic approach. I draw from strength-based models, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, person-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-focused therapy to best meet each client’s needs. My focus I typically work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, couple and marital challenges, parenting concerns, trauma, life adjustments, relationship issues, and teenagers struggling with daily life. My communication style In sessions, I strive to create a safe and calm environment while also challenging clients to make meaningful progress. I encourage clients to bring their own personality and communication style into therapy so they feel comfortable and authentic. My journey to mental healthcare My decision to become a therapist was influenced by several factors: my own struggles as a teenager, growing up with a single mother who worked in the mental health field, and my passion for problem-solving and connecting with people through their experiences. My goals for you I want my clients to actively participate in setting their therapy goals, as they bring their own intentions to the process. Together, we work to make these goals realistic and achievable. My first session with you During our first session, I like to explore what brings you to therapy—your situations, feelings, and triggers. I also want to understand what your current life looks like to better grasp your experiences.
