About me
My experience is made up of working with couples adolescents and their families for the past 15 years. My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life to a more fulfilling you. While we can't change difficult situations you are experiencing we can work together to better understand, resolve and cope with challenges in your life. By applying therapeutic modalities and techniques, together we will identify behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
I am pleased to assist you in this therapeutic journey that you are starting. I want to share with you my approach to new clients. I encourage the client to lead the therapeutic process, meaning that I am not going to take you to a place that you might not be ready psychologically. I will provide a safe non-judgemental environment for you to explore your thoughts and feelings regarding the changes and stressors that brings you to seek treatment. I would provide you with suggestions/recommendations and you are the one that decides what to take from it that applied to you. I believe that the client has the potential to find the answers they need. My goal is to provide extra support and guidance through challenging situations and direction in your life.
As a strength-based clinician, I have had the opportunity and privilege to assist people in the process of bringing stability and healing to their lives, by helping them to find and recognize their own inner strengths and applying it to their daily lives.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Leonardo Garcia. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Leonardo has been a very good person to talk to, he has asked many valid questions and that has encouraged us to continue the dialogue after the session ends. He also has been a listening ear for both of us. I honestly appreciate him and his support.
Leonardo was wonderful to work with. Although my ex and I didn’t continue on with this counseling journey, we were very confident that Leonardo was able to help us realize what we truly needed to do.
