My name is Erica Garcia, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in San Mateo, California. I work with individuals from different backgrounds facing a broad range of matters. I demonstrate a multicultural and trauma-focused perspective. I strive to help you identify the obstacles that are getting in the way of living the kind of life you want to live while also working collaboratively with you to help you move towards what matters in your life.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

My therapeutic stance is collaborative, direct, and straightforward. I enjoy creating a genuine therapeutic relationship. I pride myself on creating a genuine, safe, accepting, and non-judgmental environment to help clients progress and grow.
