Xenia Blanco, LMFT

Xenia Blanco is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 19 years of practice. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also works with caregivers facing exhaustion, people navigating divorce or separation, and adults sorting through family of origin issues.

In sessions she invites open conversation about what feels stuck. She asks practical questions and uses clear, goal-focused methods. Conversations look at how past family roles still show up in current relationships and daily choices. She speaks English and Spanish and draws on nearly two decades of clinical experience.

Xenia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. She also uses elements of the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are a concern. Those approaches guide concrete steps people can try between meetings, not just talk about issues.

She pays attention to common reactions like guilt, shame, isolation, and social anxiety. She helps people reduce repetitive conflict patterns and strengthens communication skills. Work may include practicing new conversation habits, testing different responses, and reflecting on early family expectations.

Sessions are practical and paced to the client's needs. Xenia supports adults who want clearer boundaries, better communication, or relief from ongoing anxiety. Before booking, confirm the current session options and whether they fit your schedule.
