About Tereza
Tereza Toledo is a licensed clinical social worker who brings six years of clinical experience to her practice in California. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and the lasting effects of trauma or abuse. She speaks English and Spanish and encourages anyone feeling stuck to reach out and explore therapy as a next step.
In sessions she aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through difficult thoughts and feelings. She works with people to identify what they most want to change and to build small, practical steps toward those goals. Conversations often include noticing patterns, exploring what gets in the way of progress, and practicing new ways of coping.
Tereza draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood problems, social anxiety, and isolation. She helps clients develop healthier self-talk and stronger routines that support mood and motivation. When trauma or past abuse is part of the story, she moves at the client’s pace and focuses on stabilization and safety before deeper processing.
Therapy with her is collaborative: goals are set together and adjusted as needed. She notes that starting therapy takes courage and she affirms that step while helping people find sustainable change. Practical skills, clear goals, and steady support are central to her approach.
