Great to meet you!

I am Margarita Calzadilla-Kishimoto, LCSW, a passionate bicultural /bilingual psychotherapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges. With over 30 years of experience in mental health. I focus on providing a safe and supportive environment to allow for exploration and discovery. Healing is the final destination.

My approach to therapy

I see adult individuals, who want to Transform themselves, their lives, and their relationships...starting from within. In my work over the years, it has become very clear to me how our past life events and trauma affect and shape our understanding of the world. I want to help you discover how that past shaped you and help you reshape it and heal from that past. Healing comes from looking at the past and courage to discover a new path. Let me help you find that path.

What you can expect from me

With me, you will be given a safe and compassionate space to explore your thoughts and feelings. I specialize in a variety of areas, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, loss and relationship issues. I am here to support you on your journey towards healing and personal growth.
