Terry Becerra
Hello, my name is Terry, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from California. I graduated from University of Southern California (USC) in 2014 and have since been practicing providing mental health services to patients from the ages of 7 to 90 yrs old. I have worked with various populations who have suffered from a wide variety of mental health issues over the past years. I look forward to meeting new patients and helping them to get through challenging times and situations.

Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have been using CBT for the length of my career in mental health. I help patients / clients to explore their situation and guide them in finding healthier views on the current situation while implementing a healthier approach to a variety of life issues.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I have been using ACT to help folks break down accept and commit to situations that they may not be able to change while providing a compassionate platform in which the patient / client can ease into the current situation
Compassion-Focused
As a mental health provider I feel it of the utmost importance to provide my clients with compassion focused treatment in all situations
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
I have worked with a wide variety of cultures and feel that I am very in tune and open to all of the cultures.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I use mindfulness in order to help my patients/clients to be in tune with their own thoughts, feelings and emotions
