More about Mirta

  • 15 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for 9 years (LCSW) in California and have 15 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. My areas of focus include relationship dynamics, family conflict, grief and loss, parenting, motivation, and self-esteem or confidence issues.

I take a client-centered approach, rooted in the belief that each person is the expert of their own story. I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore challenges, access inner strengths, and move toward meaningful change. I view it as a privilege to support people as they take courageous steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
