Hi my name is Leticia McCurtis, I am a registered Licensed Marriage Family Therapist. I graduated from National University with a Bachelor of Art in psychology and a Master of Arts in counseling. I am passionate about working with adult individuals, couples, children, and adolescents. It takes a vast amount of courage to face the challenges that life throws at us. It is genuinely an honor to be trusted with my clients' stories and a privilege to be given the opportunity to walk alongside their life journeys. I believe that every individual is capable of meeting their goal and becoming who they want to be. I meet and accept my clients exactly where they are at in their life. I wholeheartedly believe in creating and promoting safe spaces needed to foster healthy growth for my clients, so they may reach their goals and become who they aim to be.
I have a vast amount of experience working in different settings for counseling such as short term residential treatment, private practice settings and corporate settings for therapy. I have experience helping clients with a wide range of mental health issues such as, anxiety/stress, depression, relationship/marital issues, motivation, self esteem/confidence, coping with life changes and traumas. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming life obstacles. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey
I wanted to take this opportunity to share a few things about myself. I was born and raised in Southern California. I spent my childhood summers on a farm in Maybee, Michigan, which I absolutely loved! My favorite thing about the country were the fireflies because they are absolutely mesmerizing. I LOVE reading and listening to romantic comedies and sci-fi books. I find instrumental piano and lof-fi music delightful and peaceful. I love boba tea, coffee and I have a fondness for baking all things and cooking Soul Food & Filipino family recipes. My favorite thing to do is spend time with my mom and two sisters because we never have a dull moment. The biggest joys of my life are my nephew and nieces, they all teach me something new everyday. Lastly, I have been blessed with an amazing husband, a veteran of the United States Marine, three beautiful bonus daughters and an energetic, loving furr-baby .
I look forward to meeting you soon!

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.
