Yvette Diaz de Tuesta, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Yvette! The choice to get help can be scary. However, once you make that decision and you start receiving the guidance you need, you will feel listened to, safe, and empowered. We can work together to explore what is impacting your life and holding you back from having the life you want. I have over 16yrs of experience working with all ages. My focus Even though it may be hard to make the decision to get help, I encourage you to take the first step and call. Hopefully you will allow me to sit with you and be with you in your journey to improve your wellbeing. I am currently seeing clients only through telehealth. I am licensed in California and Colorado. My approach My specialties include trauma, abuse, assault, grief/loss, childhood issues, and domestic violence. I am certified in CBT, EMDR, DBT, CPT, TFCBT, Seeking Safety, MAP, Triple P (Positive Parenting Program), ART (Aggression Replacement Training), PATHS (Promoting Alternative Thinking Strategies), and EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques). My communication style My communication style is straightforward, open, and honest while remaining nurturing, empathetic, and caring. I provide a safe, judgment-free space where clients can feel heard and supported. I believe in empowering clients to recognize their strengths and make meaningful changes at their own pace. My journey to mental healthcare I originally planned to become a pediatrician, but after one year of pre-med, I discovered psychology and a deeper desire to help people live more fulfilling lives—not just treat them when they were sick. After taking time off to raise my children, I returned to school 10 years later to complete my bachelor’s and master’s degrees. My goals for you I work collaboratively with clients to identify their goals and regularly check in on their progress. I encourage reflection on how far they’ve come, helping them recognize growth they may not see day to day.
