Welcome! I’m excited you’re here! This means you're ready to embark on your journey towards self-improvement. Let me introduce myself, my name is Kiara Garcia. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist (MFT). I've been working as a therapist for 8 years. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults with healing, empowerment, and self-discovery to be able to live fulfilling lives. I look forward to meeting with you to discuss how I can support you in accomplishing your self-improvement goals.

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

In our first session, we'll start with brief introduction and identifying challenges and needs. Then collaboratively develop a comprehensive plan specific to addressing the challenges and needs.

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

My ability to help client's heal and overcome challenges has been through my love for helping others, being easy to talk to, and providing a healthy environment for healing.

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

I enjoy working with a wide range of clients children, adolescents, and adults, that have mild to Moderate mental health.
