Pascale Dellefield, LMFT

Pascale Dellefield is a licensed marriage and family therapist who uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress and find clearer ways forward. She brings 21 years of professional experience and focuses on everyday problems like anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and coping with major life changes.

Her approach centers on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy combined with client-centered listening. Sessions often include skill-building, short homework, and mindfulness practices. Pascale aims to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small changes that make daily life easier.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and on solution-focused techniques to set concrete goals. This mix can be useful for mood disorders, trauma recovery, addiction concerns, and parenting or family-of-origin issues. Pascale adapts tools to each person's situation rather than following a fixed script.

Pascale practices in California as an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. She speaks other languages but provides therapy in English. Her background includes long-term work with people facing grief, compassion fatigue, and complex mood conditions like bipolar disorder.

In sessions she keeps the tone warm and direct. People can expect clear options, practical steps to try between meetings, and a focus on reconnecting with what matters most in life. She aims to make beginning therapy a manageable first step toward change.

Using CBT, Mindfulness, and Client-Centered Care Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with warmth and respect. The therapist helps people talk through what matters most and shapes sessions around each person's values and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets unhelpful thoughts and habits and replaces them with clearer actions; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds practical emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills useful for strong or sudden emotions and relationship struggles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Pascale collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. She combines listening, skill practice, and short assignments so the plan evolves with progress and feedback.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people maintain face-to-face connection while fitting sessions into a schedule. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow short check-ins or step-by-step skill support between longer sessions. These options are designed to make therapy more flexible and easier to access around work, parenting, and daily life.
