Licensed Clinical Psychologist · Irvine & Los Angeles

Therapy for Anxiety, Trauma & Relationship Patterns

EMDR and Trauma-focused therapy for adults, teens, and couples in English and Spanish.

Welcome

Hi, I'm Dr. María del Carmen Gutierrez, PhD.

Licensed Psychologist · California License #PSY 36835

I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported. My goal is to create a warm, collaborative space where you can openly explore your experiences, gain insight into the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop the tools needed to create meaningful, lasting change.

My approach integrates evidence-based treatments with a deeper understanding of each person's unique story. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, I help clients explore the experiences, relationships, and patterns that shape how they feel, think, and connect with others.
