About Giovanni
Giovanni Camacho is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with six years of clinical experience. He helps people address relationship and family concerns along with anxiety, depression, stress, and trauma-related issues. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Giovanni uses practical, talk-based methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking habits and try different responses. He also uses client-centered and psychodynamic ideas to understand how past experiences shape current reactions.
In sessions he focuses on clear goals and step-by-step change. That might mean tracking thoughts and behaviors between meetings, trying short experiments, and reviewing what helped or didn’t. Conversation is direct and focused on what people want to change now.
He addresses intimacy, attachment and abandonment concerns with attention to how relationships affect daily life. For trauma and post-traumatic stress he integrates trauma-focused work to reduce distress and improve functioning. He also supports people dealing with body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, money worries, and feelings like guilt or isolation.
Practical matters are part of the plan too. Giovanni explains the process, reviews what to expect in early sessions, and recommends next steps based on progress. To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to set clear, measurable goals.
Approaches used in online sessions and practical fit
Giovanni commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT sessions often involve tracking thoughts, practicing small experiments between meetings, and reviewing what changed to refine the plan.He also draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person in front of him. This approach helps clarify goals and build motivation for the practical steps identified in CBT.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan over time based on what proves useful.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and let people join from different locations without travel. Discussing practical scheduling needs at the start helps shape how the sessions will run.
