About Giovanni
Giovanni Camacho is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with six years of clinical experience. He works with people who are dealing with relationship strain, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Giovanni uses straightforward conversation to help clients make sense of recurring patterns. He listens for how past experiences affect current relationships and behavior. He also focuses on practical skills that reduce stress and help people manage intense feelings like anger.
Sessions blend talk and active work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Psychodynamic ideas are brought in to examine how long-standing patterns and attachment issues show up in today's relationships.
When trauma is part of the picture, Giovanni incorporates trauma-focused strategies to address how painful events continue to shape reactions. Client-centered principles guide the pace of work, so people set goals and move at a level they can manage.
He offers help in English and Spanish and pays attention to cultural and identity factors that shape each person's experience. Practical topics he addresses include communication problems, forgiveness, guilt, money and career stress, caregiver strain, and feelings of isolation.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Giovanni uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time, with fees that vary by location.
How his approaches translate to online work
Giovanni commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy in sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety, anger, and low mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the ways past hurt continues to affect feelings and reactions, with methods to process those memories and reduce their grip on daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with clients to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. If something doesn’t fit, he adjusts the focus and pace together with the client.
