My name is Margarita (Magui) Garcia-Moreira, and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) based in San Diego, CA, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with women and specialize in anxiety, stress, and depression, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused therapy to help my clients make progress and start feeling empowered and loved.

I engage in a person-first, solution-focused therapeutic approach to allow you to get curious about your world, habits, experiences and needs in an effort to help adaptively enhance choices, agency and perspectives moving forward.

I have worked with diverse populations of all ages. I believe that everyone deserves to live their best life, use their voice, and be free in their body. As humans, our sense of self is shaped by family stories, the environment we grew up and live in, relationships, past traumas, and socio-political-economic and cultural influences, that may have clouded our vision of ourselves or who we want to be. My joy as a therapist is to provide space for you to speak your truth, find your way back to yourself, reinvent, and rediscover who you are. Change is a moment-by-moment process.

We are meant to heal, not suffer daily alone. My goal is to empower and support you in your life. Together we will explore and come up with an individualized plan that works best for you. I believe in being honest and straightforward about the steps required for your personal growth. My ultimate objective is to enable individuals to regain control of their lives and ultimately achieve genuine happiness.

Wrestling depression, anxiety, complex PTSD, relationship problems, or alcohol and drugs? Do others see you're at odds with yourself or your circumstances? Inner conflict, harsh self-criticism, rigid thinking, and refusal to accept yourself are blocking a life you want. Therapy doesn't need to last years nor require endless focus on the past. You can decide what to work on and have a say in the direction of that work. There are solutions for what's happening, and sometimes just seeing and keeping focused on these brings change without attention to much else. At other times it's more complicated. Give yourself room to explore.
