About me

Hi, I’m Johanna! I’m a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC), nationally certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I offer therapy for adults across California, providing support that’s genuine, collaborative, and grounded in cultural awareness. As a Latina therapist, I’m especially passionate about supporting first-generation and BIPOC individuals navigating anxiety, intergenerational trauma, and life transitions. My approach is rooted in meaningful, real conversation and creates a space where you can reflect, heal, and grow. I primarily work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, or relationship challenges. My therapeutic style integrates mindfulness, CBT, and person-centered approaches, I help clients deepen self-awareness, strengthen emotional resilience, and build more fulfilling connections. I believe meaningful change begins when you feel truly seen, understood, and supported on your path to healing. If you’ve been struggling with stress, or if you are experiencing difficulties at home, in relationships, or at your job, I can help.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we’ll start with a brief introduction and discuss what brought you to therapy. We’ll explore your current challenges, goals, and what you hope to gain from our work together. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and get a sense of my style and approach. From there, we’ll begin developing a plan tailored to your needs, so you can feel supported and confident moving forward.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I believe in the power of authenticity within the therapeutic process. My strength lies in being true to myself and my clients. I don’t pretend to have all the answers, and I don’t shy away from addressing difficult topics. I bring a genuine and transparent presence, fostering an environment of openness and honesty. My commitment to being myself—while maintaining a compassionate and respectful demeanor—helps build meaningful connections and a strong foundation of trust. This openness encourages clients to engage more fully in the therapeutic process and to show up as their authentic selves. My goal is to create a space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported throughout their healing journey.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am best positioned to serve adult clients who are experiencing anxiety or trauma and may feel like they are lacking certain coping skills or strategies to manage their emotions and life challenges. My clients are often in a place of emotional distress, but they possess a strong desire for change and are motivated to put in the work necessary for their personal growth. They may struggle with feelings of overwhelm, unprocessed past experiences, or difficulty in navigating day-to-day situations due to their emotional responses.

My treatment methods

Integrative

Although I am nationally certified as a CBT therapist, I tend to lean more towards an Integrative method of treatment. By merging elements of different theories, I can often offer a more flexible and inclusive approach to treatment depending on your individual needs and goals.
