Dr. Fernando Garcia III, Ed. D, LMFT. I'm a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and also have a doctorate degree in Sports & Performance Psychology. I have much experience working with trauma/complex trauma disorders and performance issues. I have experience working with children to older adults (65+) but I now typically work with clients ages 12 and up. I'm most comfortable treating conditions that involve anxiety or depressive symptoms, lack of motivation, history of trauma, or performance issues (school, sports, work, etc.)
My approach uses components of DBT, CBT, and Psychodynamic interventions. My tone has been described as soft and gentle; but also "direct". It is extremely important for me for the client to feel safe and unjudged; however, I want to also remain direct in regard to staying focused on the goals of treatment.
I will help guide the client through a series of questions that will help them organize the details about what brings them into therapy, explore the expectations and goals of treatment, and review the treatment plan for future sessions (weekly, every two weeks, etc.)
