Tania Cardiel

AMFT

Hi, I’m Tania Cardiel, an English and Spanish speaking Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) providing services via telehealth and in person in Ontario and Jurupa in English and Spanish. I have worked in community mental health, recovery services, and domestic violence programs supporting clients with complex trauma, co-occurring diagnoses, crisis-related concerns and have experience providing trauma-informed, culturally responsive and compassionate care to adults, children, couples and families.

Approach:
My approach to therapy is collaborative, trauma-informed, and client-centered. I draw from evidence-based practices and focus on helping clients rebuild safety, strengthen coping skills, and work toward emotional healing and resilience. I strive to create a supportive space where clients feel heard, empowered, and respected throughout the therapeutic process.
