About My Clients

I have worked with various populations and issues. Although, I have greater experience working with LGBTQIA teens, young adults, adults, and partners navigating through their anxieties and depression. I also take a special interest in working with the first-generation American population who are navigating how to build/hold boundaries, raise self-esteem, and to break generational curses.

My Background and Approach

Do you put other people's needs ahead of your own? Does your community not understand your mental health concerns? Or need a listening ear? Hola! My name is Geovana Marquez , I am a dedicated therapist specializing in supporting LGBTQIA and BIPOC individuals through various life challenges. With a compassionate approach, I'm here to help you navigate depression, anxiety, self-esteem, identity exploration, multicultural experiences, and life transitions. As a proud Chicana therapist, I deeply understand the significance of cultural identity in our lives. I believe in the power of self-discovery and embracing one's true self. My aim is to create a safe and affirming space where you can explore and celebrate your unique journey. I incorporate a blend of powerful therapeutic techniques including: * Psychodynamic, CBT, Narrative, Mindfulness, and Affirmative therapy.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I advocate for mental health, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ issues and hope that sessions are a safe space for my patients to share and grow. I hope to add value to the lives of my clients by instilling confidence in knowing they have grown within our time together. I believe in respecting everyone in their beliefs and honoring my no-judgment rule in every session.
