My name is Ana Maldonado and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Southern California. I am currently working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults, adolescents, and families, and specialize in anxiety, stress, and family conflict. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Strength Based Therapy to help my clients make progress and start feeling better.
My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client I work with. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Strength Based Therapy, as both modalities help me and the client build a shared understanding of their reality, and allow us to work together to chart a path forward
My approach to goal setting with clients is a collaborative process. We will work together to identify what you want to accomplish in our time together. We will begin by building rapport and getting comfortable with what it means to be in therapy. Over time, we'll work together to set goals and track your progress.
