CBT Therapy in Los Angeles, CA

Are you BIPOC or Queer? Hi, I’m Ligia. I help First Gen BIPOC and Queer folks in individual therapy heal from guilt and shame so they can feel more at peace with their sense of self. If you’ve ever struggled with feeling “not enough,” put everyone else’s needs before your own, or felt pressure to shrink yourself to fit in, you’re not alone. I specialize in helping clients untangle these experiences, understand their emotions, and heal from attachment wounds in a way that honors your cultural background and lived experiences. My goal is to support you in living in a way that feels honest, spacious, and aligned with who you truly are. Together, we’ll create a safe, affirming space to explore, unlearn, and grow—so you can move through the world more authentically, joyfully, and unapologetically.

I am a helper. And I help people who are currently struggling with depressive, anxious, and other mental illness-related symptoms. I help them expand their mindfulness, improve their assertive communication skills, and view themselves, and, consequently, the rest of the world, as living beings worthy of love and respect. I don't merely believe in therapy, I know first-hand the beneficial power it can provide. Before seeking mental health services for myself, not only did I suffer from low self-esteem and other depressive symptoms, I also suffered from severely disturbing panic attacks. I am grateful each and every day that I no longer suffer from those symptoms. This is just one of many reasons why mental health is the greatest passion of my life.

I am supportive, understanding, validating, open-minded, flexible, non-judgemental, kind, empowering, compassionate, hopeful, encouraging, (sometimes) humorous, and LGBTQ+ affirming. I look to you as the expert of your situation and will collaborate with you in developing goals that work so that you can overcome roadblocks and achieve better mental health! I have a deep devotion to the field of mental health, and due to my own life story decided to become a mental health therapist at a very young age. I hope to be able to help you break-through any blockages and achieve your goals.

I have been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in southern California for 15 years, working with children, adults and families. I have over 24 years of experience with the neuro-atypical diagnoses of Autism Spectrum Disorder and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. Individuals with either of these neuro-atypical disorders experience many social challenges, sensory challenges, and misperceptions by the outside world (along with a lot of bad/unhelp advice). It can bring tremendous relief to receive relevant suggestions and understanding of the life experiences that accompany these diagnoses. I have extensive experience working with individuals their and families in navigating what to do next after receiving a developmental diagnosis, such as ASD. It surprises so many families that there are many resources to assist with the struggles they have gone through or anticipate that they will go through. I have helped parents to understand their neuro-atypical child better, and the neuro-atypical person to understand themselves and their roles in life better. This has lead to the person with the neuro-atypical diagnosis experiencing more successes in their roles as a student/co-worker, classmate, family member, partner, and friend.
