About Blancandrea
Blancandrea Molina is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in California with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self esteem, and coping with life changes. She works in English and Spanish and supports people dealing with body image, caregiver stress, domestic violence, family problems, post-traumatic stress, and self-love concerns.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and solution-focused methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented, with clear steps for managing anxiety, grief, or tough life transitions. The therapist encourages people to name specific problems and test small changes between sessions.
Molina draws on trauma-focused practices when past harm affects current functioning. She also uses motivational interviewing to help people build readiness for change and to stay engaged with goals. These approaches are combined to match what a person needs in a given moment rather than following a single script.
Her approach aims to break down big problems into manageable tasks. That can look like short behavioral experiments, thought records, problem-solving steps, and checking progress together. Sessions emphasize concrete skills people can use in daily life.
People who contact her complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session to see how the work will proceed. Her background and bilingual ability make her a practical option for English- or Spanish-speaking adults seeking structured, skills-based support.
Working with CBT and related approaches online
Blancandrea Molina draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thought patterns and test small behavioral changes. CBT here focuses on concrete exercises such as tracking thoughts, trying brief behavioral experiments, and practicing coping skills to reduce anxiety or manage grief.She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize listening and reflecting the person’s concerns, and motivational interviewing to build readiness for change. Client-centered work helps people clarify what matters to them, while motivational interviewing supports finding personal reasons to move toward goals. These approaches are framed as tools to use together, not as fixed options.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means starting with what feels most useful, then adjusting techniques over time based on progress and feedback.
