50+ EAP:Evernorth therapists in California

Hello there, I’m Lus. Do you miss feeling like yourself? Does it feel like you are going around in circles with the same problems yet can’t seem to find a permanent solution? I guide adults from a person-centered approach to find solutions to their problems when experiencing difficult feelings such as those that come with depression and anxiety. I can help you work through major life transitions (newly married, becoming a parent, empty nester, starting school, grief, becoming ill, divorce, etc.) getting to the root of the problem and developing cognitive behavioral techniques that will get you back to stability. Obtaining therapy services can be intimidating but I can guarantee you that you are making the right decision. I possess bilingual abilities (Spanish), if it's your preference. You deserve your own space to heal and evolve. During our sessions, you will have a safe space where I will meet you with empathy and evidence-based practice. Let me help you.

You don’t have to struggle alone! I look forward to the opportunity to work collaboratively with you in your journey in discovering how to make positive changes, decrease negative behaviors and thoughts, and help improve your mood and engagement with life! In our hectic world we often find ourselves afraid to take risks that could jeopardize the stable lives we have created for ourselves. We remain in jobs, relationships and old patterns that no longer work, while symptoms such as anxiety, depression, stress, anger and self-defeating patterns keep us from making real changes to our lives. If that sounds like you, you are stuck. We can feel lost and alone when we are unable to move forward, whether in work or a personal relationship. Therapy can help you break free of that and thrive. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a focus on teens, adults, and couples. I have worked with clients on concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and family reunification.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to each individual in order to cultivate lifelong skills, increased life satisfaction, improved self-esteem, stress management, resolved symptoms, and restoration of hope. In my practice, I utilize both psychotherapy and an integrative approach to knowledge for the understanding of how experiences of the past ultimately affect the way we think and operate in the present as well as in the future. It is my belief that the journey to peace is personal and with guidance and support we can overcome any and all obstacles. We must trust the process.

A quote that has always brought me courage, "Into the Great Perhaps," moves us to embrace the unknown. It's an invitation to dream and a challenge to have the courage to step into uncertainty. This concept deeply resonates with my therapeutic approach. I emphasize that embracing uncertainty is where growth and transformation occur. In therapy, we'll explore the uncharted territories of your thoughts, emotions, and relationships and view life's challenges as opportunities for personal growth. Together, we'll journey toward self-discovery and personal development. Life is filled with uncertainties, and navigating the intricacies of relationships can often resemble an unmapped voyage. Yet, within these unknowns lies the potential for healing and transformation. Let's uncover what the "Great Perhaps" means for you. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with years of experience, I provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for you to explore your experiences. I firmly believe in the resilience of the human spirit and our capacity for positive change, even amidst adversity.

I work with mild, moderate and severe mental health clients who may be in a current crisis with their marriage, stage of life issues, or self-improvement. I work with adults of all ages, gender and sexual orientations.

I use a Person-Centered approach to therapy and apply evidence-based practices such as CBT and Solution Focused.

I believe it takes courage to seek help and personal growth, which is why I meet you where you are, emotionally, to work collaboratively with you. If you would like a supportive therapist who cares about helping you achieve your goals and find the quality of life you seek, I encourage you to contact me to discuss your situation and what therapy might do for you.

Are you struggling and stressed with what's on your plate, whether you are doing "what you are supposed to be doing" with your life, or feeling like an imposter at times?

Sometimes, the most profound connections are formed when someone truly listens.I’m Cintia, here not just to hear, but to deeply understand you. In a world where trauma and anxiety often drown out our inner voices, I know that beneath the spoken words, lies a heart’s true narrative. What a degree in Clinical Psychology and a seven-year journey as a therapist has allowed me to is delve deep into the realms of trauma, anxiety, and depression. While these are my primary focuses, I also bring profound insights into PTSD, intricate family dynamics, relationship challenges, and concerns faced by the LGBTQ community.

Let me start by saying self-care is the one thing that we can do for ourselves, but is usually the last thing we do for ourselves. So, congratulations for taking the first steps in caring for yourself. The journey of therapy is not easy. There will be times when it gets exhausting but as you continue through your path the answers will be revealed through the work you complete with your therapist. It is a privilege and honor to walk the journey. As a therapist, I have worked with a plethora of clients from couples counseling, to adolescent, trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, and mood disorders.

My approach is solution focused. I am not primarily concerned with how or why your present challenge developed but will focus instead on helping you to find a way forward. I hope to elicit and reinforce your positive attributes and competencies and help you to access your inner strength. Your ability to change or improve your situation depends on your desire to do so and my job is to awaken that desire within you. The biggest challenge all of us face is negative thinking. This is a reflection of our own disappointment of what we see when we look inside ourselves. By improving our self-image through accentuating our positive qualities we begin to see the world in a more positive light. A sure way of feeling better about ourselves is to find something good in every other human being.

I'm here to sit with you and to witness your lived-in experience. I believe that who you are is a culmination of having survived the pains of life and a result of how you learned to get love. I help you notice the deepest parts of yourself so that you can become your most authentic self. I will push you to lean into your humanity to integrate the unacknowledged parts of yourself. I aim to provide a balance of safety and challenge and in doing so, I hope to help you understand how much you gain by being more of who you are. I help you to see yourself more clearly so that you can develop self-compassion and self-love. Although I am a therapist and have learned the many techniques of this field, my main stance is to relate to you as a fellow human being. As the famous psychologist Carl Rogers stated, “When a person realizes he has been deeply heard, his eyes moisten. I think in some real sense he is weeping for joy." I hope to give you this gift.

I hear you. You've been going through the motions, avoiding pain, sometimes barely hanging on, and trying to live a "normal," happy life. But, your past keeps creeping up and interrupts your hopes and goals, negatively impacts your day to day life, and creates relationship struggles.

People often ask me why I became a therapist. Helping people in short is why, but it does not quite grasp the process that happens. The more time I spend in this field, the simpler the answer gets, having someone’s trust in you to get to the root of someone’s struggle to make a longstanding impact on individuals. Although evidence-based practices are necessary and important, my main priority in the room is the client-therapist relationship. I am a big believer that the most important part of therapy is the relationship. As an attachment-focused therapist, a secure therapeutic relationship brings safety, trust, and growth. For the last 6 years, I worked for a mental health program that focused heavily on the mind-body connection. I value the importance of approaching clients, addressing both the mind and the body to treat the whole person.
