Nuni Cambel
Hi, my name is Nuni Cambel, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) working in California. I have been helping children, adolescents, and adults for over 12 years in a number of settings, including a therapeutic milieu for adults diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum, foster care, community mental health, and private practice. I love helping clients feel better and achieve success, whatever that looks like for them.
First session
Our first session will be an opportunity for you to share how you have been feeling and to discuss areas of your life in which you are experiencing challenges. It is a time for both of us to get to know each other and for you to see if working with me will be a good fit for you. I will ask questions to get a better sense of what you are experiencing, what is important to you, and what you would like to work on in therapy.
Strengths
My greatest strength as a therapist is being able to hold hope for my clients when it is sometimes hard for them to do so in the moment. I am genuine and interested in getting to know my clients and helping them explore, learn skills, and utilize their strengths to feel better and make changes in their lives. I enjoy collaborating with clients and celebrating their small and big successes.
Ideal clients
In my private practice where I see clients virtually, I love working with adults who are interested in exploring and seeking change, including learning more about their experiences, reducing symptoms of depression or anxiety, and learning new skills and strategies. I enjoy working with clients who identify as neurotypical and neurodiverse.
