Esther Loera

LCSW, 10 years of experience
Open-minded
Authentic
Direct

Hi! My name is Esther and I am a LCSW in the state of California. I graduated with my MSW at California State University of Monterey Bay. I have been practicing therapy for 10 plus years. I specialize in trauma informed care and those with a severe mental illness. I support individuals find grace for themselves and harmony in their life by addressing burn out, confidence issues, anxiety, depression and other life factors.

Get to know me

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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions. Space is allowed to get to know each other and build trust. I am very flexible and allow the client to determine the tempo of session we can go as slow as jump right into, whatever makes you feel more comfortable. This helps me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked with young professionals, families and children for the past 10 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress. Although I am direct and focused on solutions space is available to process emotions and to be vulnerable without judgement.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with professionals of all ages and young children. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their careers. I also see teens who need just a little more support to feel comfortable making life decisions.

Esther Loera has been an amazing help to my struggles over the last few months. I am starting to understand my problems/issues and learning to process them better over all. She makes it easy to open up in so many ways as well as push the buttons at the right points to address your problems.
