My name is Celena Mendez. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), based in Southern California. I work with women of all ages, experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, phase of life transitions, and challenges using a predominantly client-centered and eclectic approach to helping clients heal and start feeling better.
My approach to therapy is tailored to each client's needs. I most frequently use Client-Centered and Solution-Focused, as these modalities help me to connect with clients, understand their perspectives, and work together towards their goals.
I decided to become a therapist because I have always wanted to help people. I have always naturally been drawn to helping people through difficult times. I enjoy seeing individuals become the best versions of themselves. It's an honor to be a part of each person's healing journey.

I believe therapy should be a safe and collaborative space where you can slow down, gain clarity, and reconnect with yourself.
