Yesenia Segovia, LCSW

Hello,

*Some bi-weekly spots open*

My name is Yesenia Segovia, an LCSW based out of southern California.  I am Salvadorean- American married to a Mexican-American and we have two salvi-mexican mixed adorable  children. I am currently in my Madre era. Vibing at kid-friendly place, is part of life, right now. 

Well, let’s get into why you are on my page. I know looking for a therapist and starting therapy can feel difficult and overwhelming. There are so many options and trying to figure out who would be a good fit for you. To help with your search,  I can tell you what it would be like to have therapy with me. With me, you will have a culturally aware and sensitive therapist who has the understanding  of the latino culture traditions and values. From the machismo, the double standards of brother and sisters, and being the parentified sister, or the “bad one” of the family.  Navigating mental health in the latino community is different, and important to consider our experience as we dive in to mental wellness. 

Our sessions, will focus on your goals for your mental health growth.  I provide a warm, compassionate, non-judgemental space to allow you to express yourself. I will support you with validation, listening, helpful and applicable strategies for real world situations. A big part of my practice is helping you, to increase your own confidence about how to manage on your own. As a way to prepare you, I often,  I will leave you with some homework; so you may practice outside of therapy.  My therapeutic environment is honest and authentic, so accountability will be important as we move forward. Don’t worry, nothing like the chancla method at all. I am able to hold you accountable in a safe environment.  

Whatever is troubling you, from relationship issues with your partner, friends, family or co-workers, boundary issues, people pleasing, to stress, and parenting. Or life transitions from starting college, a new career navigating the adult world or feeling the imposter syndrome of “am I even an adult, if I am struggling with so many life things from financial stress, to family, and many other things and feeling stuck.” All these things may feel challenging, impacting your mental health leading to anxiety, depression and increased stress. If this sounds like you, we may be a good fit. Reach out to me and let’s get started. If you are interested in learning more about therapy with me book an appointment.  Follow the link to my website or email me. 

If you don’t have the insurance I am paneled with, no worries. See below

I am partnered with Mentaya, to help clients use their out-of-network benefits for potential reimbursement on therapy!

**What are out-of-network benefits?** Here’s a breakdown:

✨ If your insurance plan offers out-of-network benefits, it means they will cover a portion of the cost when you see a therapist who doesn’t have a direct contract with your insurance company.

✨ Unlike in-network providers, who bill your insurance company directly, with out-of-network therapists, you typically pay for the session upfront and then submit a claim to your insurance for reimbursement.

✨ Insurance companies often reimburse a percentage of the therapist’s fee, usually after you meet an out-of-network deductible. For example, after you meet a $1,000 deductible, your insurance may reimburse 50-80% of the session cost.

✨ Out-of-network benefits give you the flexibility to choose a therapist based on your needs and preferences, not just those in-network.
