Araceli Cordova

As a bilingual, first generation Mexican American therapist and Bay Area native, I am passionate about promoting exploration and connection to self identity, healthy relationships, and a growth mindset in times of transition. I work with children and families, particularly I specialize in providing a supportive and nonjudgmental space for teens struggling with the chaos of adolescence and becoming a young adult in this generation. I am here to process these anxious feelings and help teens develop the skills to better recognize, understand, and tolerate their feelings, so they can learn to “grow through what they go through”. I also specialize in working with parents exploring parenthood for the first time, by guiding them through the difficult feelings that arise as their life transitions from an individualist outlook on life to one that integrates an emotional balance in parenthood, relationships with your partner/ family and career. My style in therapy is centered around your needs and your particular issues. I’d love to join you on this journey and support you in processing difficult feelings, feeling more connected to yourself and others, by making the needed shifts in yourself, relationships, and life.
