About Minerva
Minerva Guzman is a California licensed marriage and family therapist with 13 years of experience. She helps people address relationship struggles, low self esteem, motivation challenges, and symptoms of depression. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space so people can talk honestly about what’s hard for them.
In sessions she focuses on listening first and understanding each person's priorities. She uses practical tools to build confidence and improve communication. Work may include setting small goals, trying new ways to talk with others, and practicing short mindfulness exercises.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and take steps toward them. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s lead, and Mindfulness Therapy to support attention and emotional regulation. These methods are used to address relationship concerns, family strain, and coping with life changes.
Minerva also brings experience supporting people dealing with adoption and foster care, immigration-related stress, forgiveness, and multicultural concerns. She can discuss strategies for impulsivity, self-harm, and self-love in a steady, respectful way.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Her practice accepts international clients. To begin, readers can select the continue button on this profile, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.
