    About

    Meet Belinda

    My name is Belinda Valdivia and I am a bilingual therapist licensed in California. I have a decade of experience working in different settings with diverse populations. I provide individual therapy to children ages 5-years and over, adolescents ages 13-to-17 years, adults 18 years and over as well as family therapy. As your therapist my goal is for you to have a safe space to share your thoughts and feelings while knowing that I am listening to you without judgment.

    Individual and family therapy

    Specialties 

    Anxiety and Fears

    I can help you manage your worries and fears through relaxation techniques and having a shift in your way of thinking to achieve a more calm mindset

    Stress

    If you are feeling overwhelmed and constantly thinking about all the different problems in your life, therapy can be a healthy and safe space for you to talk about your emotions without judgment and learn techniques to decompress

    Depression

    Feeling down, helpless and unmotivated? Together we can work on setting goals and achieve them in order for you to live a happier, balanced life

    Trauma/PTSD

    My approach to trauma is for you to be able to release emotions associated with past trauma and let go of blame and begin forgiveness. By sharing your traumatic experience it can help you face the trauma instead of continuing to avoid it

     

    Anger control problems

    If you are struggling with managing irritability and angry feelings, we can work together in becoming aware of the feeling and avoid escalation through conflict resolution and appropriate communication 

     

    Grief and Loss 

    After a loss, sometimes avoidance of dealing with the loss can lead to to unhealthy behaviors and suppressed thoughts and feelings. That is why in therapy we can begin a healthy grieving process around the loss of your loved one.
