Maria G. Castaneda Sandoval, LMFT

Hola/Welcome, I’m a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California, committed to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion and clarity. I offer a client-centered, integrative approach tailored to your unique needs, drawing from evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, motivational interviewing, solution focus therapy, and DBT practices to support growth, healing, and meaningful change.

Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, life transitions, or stress, I provide a safe, welcoming space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, build healthier relationships, and move forward with greater confidence and purpose. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and I’m here to walk alongside you as you create the life you want to live.

Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy staying active through workouts and outdoor walks, which help me stay grounded and energized. I also love exploring new places through travel, watching a good movie to unwind, and spending quality time in nature with family. These personal interests help me maintain balance.
