Andrea Gonzalez, LCSW

Anxiety and Relationship Therapist for Adults in California

 

Welcome! My name is Andrea Gonzalez, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am the founder of Inner Knowing Counseling™, a San Diego-based private practice that provides in-person and telehealth therapy to anxious adults and teens in California. For a free 15-minute phone consultation, call, text or email today.

My approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that are most commonly associated with anxiety and interpersonal conflict and provides people with real skills that will help you engage in actions and ways of thinking that will help your confidence, self-esteem, and ability to problem-solve in order to meet your goals.

I draw from modalities such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT). These methods are evidence-based approaches in helping to relieve anxiety and teach new skills that you can use when experiencing symptoms.

I specialize in supporting anxious adults, people pleasers, and those who struggle with generalized anxiety or relationship issues in their life, and can provide a safe space in which you can begin your healing journey.


Meet Andrea

I am a relationship and anxiety therapist who uses a warm, collaborative and empathic approach while helping you unpack the obstacles you are currently facing. I see my clients as the expert in their lives who hold the keys to their own healing, and as your therapist, I am here to walk alongside you on the journey through discovering those keys. I believe all of us have an “inner knowing”; innate wisdom that once tapped into can become a lasting, reliable compass. It is my passion to help clients tap into this inner knowing that helps them make life decisions more closely aligned with their own values.

My Approach

I provide virtual psychotherapy services specializing in relationships, breakups and anxiety. Utilizing strategies that draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, I help clients process and unpack childhood wounds and anxious thoughts that are preventing them from having fulfilling relationships with others and with themselves. I collaborate with clients on their goals in therapy in order to engage them actively in the process in order to for clients to have a more centered and grounded outlook on life’s challenges. My approach is client-centered, collaborative, warm and tailored to the client’s individual needs.

Get in touch today for a free 15-minute phone consultation. During our consultation, I will answer any questions you have about the therapy process and explore whether my services are a good fit for your needs.
