Hello! My name is Ivette R. Pelayo, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist that specializes in understanding our familial origins, in order to understand our current situation.
I typically work with clients who have issues with their family of origin and clients who are managing parenting difficulties due to separation or divorce, or substance abuse issues. I am a client-centered, humanistic, and family systems therapist who leads with empathy, compassion, and an open mind.
I approach goal setting collaboratively with clients. I listen for what the client is seeking and help figure out what goals would be best to support them, however, a client's voice and choice are what guide the goal that is chosen.
Take the first step to help. Call or Email Ivette Pelayo now - (661) 443-5820
