My Approach to Helping
Hi, my name is Alisandra Salgado and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California. I understand that it may be difficult at times to seek help. That is why I strive to provide an environment where clients feel safe to discuss their mental health concerns with no judgment. My treatment approach is tailored to meet my client's individual needs, as every client is unique.
My therapeutic approach is to first and foremost build a relationship with my client by providing a safe place to express what has brought them in for services. From there, it's working together to help gain a better understanding and awareness of thoughts, emotions and behavior. To do this, I use approaches from Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
I have experience working with client's who want to learn how to manage stress, anxiety, depression, or coping with life challenges. I strive to provide an environment where clients feel comfortable to open up and share how they are feeling and what they are thinking. My approach is to create a collaborative relationship by involving my clients in the therapeutic process every step of the way.
