01About Georgette
Georgette Esquivel-Chand helps people who are carrying heavy emotions like anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. She is a California LMFT and LPCC who uses practical, conversational steps to help people feel more steady. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish to match clients' needs.
She focuses on clear, simple goals such as improving self-esteem, managing strong emotions, and working through the impact of trauma or past wounds. Georgette pays attention to how identity and culture shape what a person brings to therapy.
Background and approach
That helps make treatment relevant to daily life. Her work draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people accept difficult feelings while taking actions that match their values.
Internal Family Systems work helps name the parts of a person that feel stuck or reactive. Sessions are conversational and aimed at building skills and insight. Georgette often blends approaches so a person can learn new habits while understanding where those habits came from.
She also helps people navigate relationship transitions, chronic health challenges, and caregiver stress. Georgette has six years of clinical experience in California and tailors care to each person. She asks simple questions at the start to make the plan clear.
If a client prefers Spanish, she can work in that language to improve comfort and comprehension.

04Online support
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Georgette uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then choose small actions that match their values. This can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when someone wants tools to act despite discomfort.She also draws on Psychodynamic Therapy to look at patterns that repeat across relationships and time. That work helps people understand why certain reactions come up and how to shift long-standing habits. Internal Family Systems helps name and work with the different parts inside a person - the protective parts, the wounded parts, and the curious parts - so those inner voices can relate differently.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client will talk about goals, try methods, and adjust the plan together. Georgette tailors which techniques to use based on each person's needs, pace, and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
