Person Centered Therapy in California

Life often feels like a series of expectations set by others—family, jobs, or society. It’s easy to lose your own voice in the noise. At Well Mind California, I believe you are the expert on your own life.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) providing specialized person centered therapy exclusively to residents of California via secure online and phone appointments.

What is Person Centered Therapy?


Person centered therapy (also known as client-centered therapy) is a compassionate, non-judgmental approach to mental health. Unlike other forms of therapy that may focus on "diagnosing" or "fixing" you, this approach focuses on you as a whole person.

The core belief is simple: You possess the inner resources to grow and heal. My role as your therapist is not to lead you, but to walk beside you, providing a safe environment where you can uncover your true feelings without fear of criticism.

The Three Pillars of My Practice

1. Unconditional Positive Regard: I accept you exactly as you are, without judgment.
2. Empathic Understanding: I strive to understand your world from your perspective, not mine.
3. Congruence (Genuineness): I show up as a real human being, honest and transparent in our sessions.

Is Person Centered Therapy Right for Me?


This humanistic approach is highly effective for individuals seeking personal growth or dealing with:

Anxiety and stress
Depression or low self-esteem
Relationship difficulties
Grief and loss
Life transitions (career changes, divorce, etc.)

If you are tired of feeling "analyzed" and want a space where you are truly heard, this modality may be the perfect fit.

Common Questions (FAQ)


How is person centered therapy different from CBT?

While Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing specific thought patterns and behaviors, person centered therapy focuses on self-discovery and how you perceive yourself. It is less about "homework" and more about deep, transformative understanding.

Do you accept clients from outside California?

Currently, I am licensed to provide therapy exclusively to individuals physically located within the state of California at the time of our session.

What happens during a session?

You lead the way. We will explore whatever is on your mind—current struggles, past memories, or future fears—at your own pace. I am here to help you clarify your thoughts and find your own solutions.
