(she/her)
Hello, my name is Gloria Gonzales, I am a bilingual/bicultural licensed psychotherapist, with three adult grown children. My experience is working with individuals, families, co-parents, and couples since 2011. I have also had the opportunity to work as an adjunct professor teaching Clinical Psychology, to Master Level students. My hope is to help you heal and live an abundant life filled with happiness. I don't believe there is anyone who has had a perfect life, however our trials and mishaps can also give us wisdom as we go through life. Everyday is an opportunity to learn, heal & change!
Our first initial session we both will have the opportunity to meet and answer any questions. In addition, I will be going through the forms sent to you & discussing informed consent, confidentiality, and discussing the treatment process. You will have the opportunity to explore the challenges you would like to focus on, along with a treatment plan. I am happy to schedule an office or Teletherapy session.
My greatest strengths as a licensed psychotherapist are being able to connect with my client's, building a trusting therapeutic relationship, a reflective listener, and validating their experiences. I am also empathetic & compassionate which allows me to connect with clients by helping them to solve their own challenges.
I am intrigued in working with couples, adults, and individuals. I am looking forward in helping you achieve your goals as you take this first step.
Top specialties
Other specialties
I identify as
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
As a bilingual/bicultural psychotherapist it is important we understand how cultural beliefs along with past generational trauma can impact our relationships and identity. Utilizing a contextual and developmental approach, I explore the cultural and social factors that may contribute to mental health problems affecting you.
Attachment-based
In attachment therapy we will be focusing on the type of attachment one developed with their caregiver; this will influence a person's life and their relationships with others. We will be exploring past and current relational attachments. Together we will explore and gain awareness of emotional patterns and assist in improving the quality of attachment with others.
Child Parent Psychotherapy
The goal is to support family strengths and relationships by helping families heal and grow while respecting family and cultural values. The goal is to help children express their feelings through play, strengthen parent-child relationship, and help the parents understand their child's experiences and behaviors.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In CBT therapy, patients learn to recognize negative patterns of thought, evaluate their validity, and replace them with healthier ways of thinking, and cope with stressors in a constructive manner.

Great therapist. Gloria is passionate about her work and it shows. I felt seen in this initial session but I also felt challenged to take action which is rare so I highly recommend Gloria if you're open to being empowered by a therapist.

Gloria has such a beautiful spirit. From the moment we connected, she was incredibly kind, warm, and genuinely authentic. She has this rare way of making you feel seen and comfortable — so easy to talk to, so present, and so real. I’m deeply grateful for angels like her in this world — the quiet world changers whose light uplifts everyone around them. Gloria truly embodies grace, compassion, and heart. 💛
