Jennifer Rivera

I am a graduate from Cal State Long Beach and have had the privilege of working with teens, transitional-age youth, adults, and families with experiences of trauma and mental health challenges. I believe that we each have unique strengths that can be harnessed to navigate life’s challenges and to also create a life that is fulfilling. With courage, dedication and patience, therapy is a powerful tool that can greatly improve one's quality of life.

My therapeutic practice embodies empowerment, openness, and a holistic approach to your well-being. I draw from a variety of evidence-based practices that include cognitive behavioral therapy to collaboratively work with you in addressing what is bringing you to therapy.

Our time together is about you. You can always expect to feel safe, seen, and heard. My goal is to support you in what is bringing you to therapy and to create a plan that meets your needs.
