My name is Lucia Montiel, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Los Angeles, California and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with children, adolescents and adults and specialize in depression, anxiety, stress and trauma, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Relational-Based therapy, Solution Focused and Trauma Focus Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help my clients make progress and start to feel better so that they can live their life to the best of their potential.
I have found that my style and approach is a good fit for children, teens and young adults who may be dealing with past trauma experiences or attachment/relationship issues. This often takes the form of depression, anxiety, irritability, and stress.
I work to help clients gain insight into the root of their emotional pain, help to increase self-awareness, relieve stress and find ways to manage and cope with their negative feelings so that they feel better about themselves and engage in more positive thinking.
