Celia is awesome and has been a huge help to me on my journey to tackle the emotional and mental baggage I'd put off for so long. Her leading questions and suggested activities have really nudged me in the right direction, and I can hardly believe how much progress I've made in such a short time.
More about Celia
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been working with clients for the past 4 years. I have aid clients when in crisis, I provide clients with case management services when resources are needed (i.e housing, educational, financial and parenting). I help clients manage some of the daily barriers that can cause destress on a person and those around them. My sessions are usually tailored to the client and their individual needs. I encourage the client at the beginning of treatment to be open and discuss what they want to obtain from treatment. I help and guide the client to identify most pressing goals and explore how to best work towards them. I help clients identify past traumas that might be affecting their current state and utilize psychodynamic interventions. I utilize different modality and approaches in my session. I use them according to where the client is and how they respond to it. I am respectful towards client’s cultures and how culture and family dynamics impact the client.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She’s amazing I love the input and that she really listens and helps find logical solutions to help issues and ways of thinking
Celia is very helpful and easy to talk to. I feel like she offers multiple ways of improving your cognitive behaviors and is patient when you fall back into old behaviors. I have become happier and confident since talking to Celia I would recommend her to anyone.
I've been seeing Celia for nearly 5 months now. She does a great job of honing on the right issues. I am a tough nut to crack - I do not easily share openly. She's able to dig into the right questions to get me to really think about the important steps I need to take for my mental health. She's great!
I love celia and her ability to talk to my wide variety of problems. She is very attentive and so helpful to me. It truly feels like I have a therapist and friend at the same time.
