Deborah Gonzalez-PooleMarriage & Family Therapist, LMFT

About

I am a licensed psychotherapist in California who works with individual adults on relationship difficulties, life transitions, depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief and loss. Deborah uses DBT, CBT, CFT, IFS, EMDR, and somatic and mindfulness approaches to increase awareness, calm the nervous system, create adaptive patterns, and improve interpersonal skills. I am also a registered yoga instructor and meditation teacher, and integrate movement and meditation to increase presence with mind and body when beneficial to clients. I use a holistic and integrative approach when working with clients and collaborate with clients to determine what skills and resources will help them meet their goals. I provide psychoeducation and assign homework to clients when beneficial. I also elicit feedback from clients to help determine next steps.
