Hello, Therapy can bring to you improved self-awareness and confidence that will allow a more fulfilling relationship with yourself, as well as help you to connect with others to establish enriching and satisfying relationships. Locating the right therapist can be quite a task! Hello, I’m Teresa Haro, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California [License #117156], focused on providing comprehensive Telehealth services in California. Conditions like trauma (PTSD, complex trauma), depression, anxiety, chronic illness, addictions, attention deficit hyperactivity/ disorder, and Bipolar can be addressed since they often lead to feeling like life can be difficult. Facing these emotional conditions may bring up difficult challenges for you. Difficult relationships, intergenerational trauma, childhood trauma, relational stress, abuse, grief, loss, low self-esteem, the cycle of life transitions, and co-dependency issues can impact the quality of life. I aim to assist you in harnessing your inner strengths and building resiliency to manage and thrive during difficult times, and life transitions. I have experience utilizing interventions from cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, solutions-focused therapy, psychodynamic therapy, positive psychology approaches, and mindfulness practices. I approach therapy from a client-centered perspective focusing on compassion, genuineness, and empathy. I help clients connect with the meaning of their thoughts, feelings, and actions. I have had the privilege to guide the following populations: college students, women and their concerns, domestic violence survivors, survivors of sexual abuse, gay men (MSM), immigrants, victims of abuse, adults, and seniors. *I am a graduate of Antioch University, Los Angeles, California. I have a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology. My undergraduate degree is in Chicano Studies from California University Dominguez Hills, Carson, California. I am fluent in Spanish, and Bi-cultural. Together we can face any complexities that arise in a safe space. I strive to provide the emotional support you need to realize your potential emotional wellness, so you can embark on your well-being with life! **Please note I do not provide couples counseling services.
After meeting you and conducting a evaluation of your emotional needs, an individualized care plan will be constructed based off your goals, and current challenges. You will be provided immediate assistance in learning coping skills to address your emotional discomforts as soon as possible.
I have experience utilizing interventions from cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, solutions-focused therapy, psychodynamic therapy, positive psychology approaches, and mindfulness practices. Client's can expect to learn effective tools to utilize such as cognitive restructuring, mindfulness, behavior activation, and others to address their emotional distress.
I approach therapy from a client-centered approach. I have a background in knowing about various community resources to be able to offer to my clients. I have experience in providing clients with counseling services from a bilingual/bicultural approach practicing cultural humility. Utilizing this approach, clients can expect to develop their true authentic self and gain a sense of life satisfaction.

Teresa Haro has helped me a great deal, and is an excellent therapist in many ways. She’s very client centered, helps me analyze situations with a bigger picture, and brainstorm solutions. She’s knowledgeable and able to provide resources and avenues I would not have considered on my own. My life is much better for having been lucky enough to be paired with her.

I thought she would be a good fit after reading the bio she provided. After working with her and getting to know her, Teresa has really helped me. She had really given me a new look on therapy and how much good it can do when you have a great provider.
