Brandi Rivera

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Azusa Pacific University and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with an emphasis in Family and Child Development. I have worked with children and families, including previous experience in the ABA field. I have also worked in school settings providing social-emotional support to children in both general education and special education. I have experience supporting children, teens, adults, and couples with concerns such as anxiety, stress, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, life transitions, and family concerns.

I have experience supporting children, teens, adults, and couples with concerns such as anxiety, stress, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, life transitions, and family concerns. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and understood while also gaining practical tools to manage challenges and work toward their goals.

Our first session is really about getting to know each other. We'll talk about what's bringing you in, your background, and what you're hoping to get out of therapy. I'll also walk you through how the therapy process works so you know what to expect moving forward.
