About Felicia
Felicia Ponce is a California-based Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 14 years in the field. She supports people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, addictions, eating concerns, ADHD, anger, self-esteem, and career or life changes.
Felicia takes a calm, person-centered approach in sessions. She stays curious about each person's story and treats the hour as theirs to guide. She aims to create a sense of safety and to help people uncover their own solutions through conversation and reflection.
Her background includes five years at a nonprofit clinic serving children and families and four years providing educationally related mental health services in a high school district. She later moved into independent practice and has also taught as an adjunct lecturer in undergraduate and graduate psychology programs at a California State University.
In sessions she often uses cognitive behavioral techniques and attachment-focused ideas to address how thoughts, behaviors, and relationships affect daily life. Motivational interviewing and mindfulness tools are also part of her work when clients want practical ways to change habits and manage stress.
Felicia values teamwork with the people she sees and tries to keep things straightforward. She recognizes asking for help takes courage and aims to offer steady support while people work toward clearer goals and healthier routines.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Felicia often draws on attachment-focused ideas to look at how early and current relationships affect feelings and behavior. This approach helps when relationship patterns, closeness, or trust are part of the concern, and it guides conversations about improving connections and emotional responses.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life changes. CBT offers hands-on strategies for mood, anxiety, and stress by changing thinking patterns and small behaviors that get in the way of daily functioning.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Felicia works with each person to match techniques to their goals, values, and everyday life. She adjusts methods over time so the work stays useful and relevant.
Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins or longer sessions when needed. It also lets people try different techniques between appointments and bring real-life situations into conversation for practical problem solving.
