Yaritza Herrera-Renteria, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Yaritza! I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up as you are, without judgment or pressure to have everything figured out. I’m passionate about helping people feel heard, understood, and supported as they navigate difficult emotions, relationships, life transitions, and the process of reconnecting with themselves. My focus I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional difficulties. I support clients in understanding their emotions, strengthening coping skills, improving relationships, and building confidence as they work toward meaningful change. My approach My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I strive to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and free from judgment. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build practical coping skills, and use approaches such as CBT and DBT to help you create meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you. My communication style My communication style is warm, compassionate, and genuine. I create a nonjudgmental space where you can feel comfortable being yourself while also offering gentle, honest feedback when helpful. I value open communication and will meet you with curiosity, empathy, and respect throughout our work together. My journey to mental healthcare I was drawn to this field by a desire to understand people’s stories and help them feel less alone during difficult moments. My journey has allowed me to work with children, adults, and families across different levels of care, strengthening my belief in the power of connection, resilience, and having a safe space to heal. My goals for you I believe therapy goals should reflect what matters most to you. Together, we’ll identify your needs, strengths, and areas you’d like to change, then break your goals into realistic and manageable steps.
