Hi, my name is Cynthia Plascencia, and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. I am based in Southern California. I work with children, adolescents/teenagers, and adults who experience PTSD, trauma, complex trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, behavior, and emotional disorders in children, using a Humanist/Person-Centered approach.
I have found that my style and approach have allowed me to provide support, self-awareness, skills, and growth throughout the many life challenges one can experience throughout a lifespan, such as depression, anxiety, stress, lack of motivation, being overwhelmed, existential crises and adjusting to life's cycles of changes.
I have always basked in making a difference in the lives of others and sharing my knowledge, skills, and wisdom gained through life experiences. I possess a passion for the work that I do. I thrive on building therapeutic relationships that inspire and empower individuals to discover their innate ability to heal, learn, and grow.
