Psychotherapy in Burlingame, CA
With Jessica Urzúa, MFT
Welcome – You’ve Found a Thoughtful Space to Heal and Grow
Living in the Bay Area — especially here in Burlingame — brings a fast pace, high expectations, and often, complex personal transitions. Whether you’re managing stress, facing cultural identity challenges, healing from a breakup, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself or others, you’re not alone. Since 2013, I’ve supported individuals, couples, and families through life’s turning points with compassionate and culturally sensitive psychotherapy in Burlingame, CA.
My approach is relational, grounded in deep listening, and informed by a rich multicultural background. I draw from lived experiences in Chile, Germany, and Switzerland, and offer psychotherapy in English, Spanish, and German. So when you work with me, you receive one-on-one support in a confidential space—never passed off to a team or intern. This is your journey, and my role is to walk beside you with curiosity, care, and insight.
Who I Work With
Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. You might be dealing with a painful life transition, navigating the emotional complexity of immigration, in the middle of divorce recovery, or feeling the strain of a disconnected relationship. You may be a parent searching for children’s therapy in Burlingame, CA or part of a couple hoping to rebuild trust. Whatever brings you here, I offer a grounded, non-judgmental space for reflection and change.
In my practice, I welcome:
-
Adults seeking clarity, healing, and deeper self-awareness
-
Children and teens struggling with emotions, family changes, or school transitions
-
Couples needing communication tools, emotional reconnection, or support through major life events
-
Multilingual, multicultural, or immigrant individuals balancing multiple cultural identities
-
Spanish-speaking clients looking for a therapist who speaks their language and honors their roots
If you're looking for a Spanish-speaking therapist in Burlingame, CA or someone who deeply understands cultural nuance, my work might be the right fit for you.
