About Jose
Jose Legaspi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nine years of clinical experience in California. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, career concerns, depression, and coping with life changes.

Jose keeps sessions warm and interactive. He uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people reduce symptoms and handle day-to-day problems. Sessions emphasize clear goals and steps people can try between meetings.
He often blends cognitive-behavioral ideas with dialectical behavioral strategies and a strengths-focused outlook. That mix is used to change unhelpful thinking, build emotional skills, and use a person’s own resources to solve problems. Plans are tailored to each person’s situation and goals.
Jose has worked across settings during his nine years in practice, which gives him experience with addiction, mood disorders, and issues tied to life transitions. He also supports people facing caregiver stress, immigration concerns, isolation or loneliness, and fatherhood questions.
People can expect a collaborative tone in sessions. Jose helps identify concrete steps, tracks progress, and adjusts the plan as needed. He invites people to bring practical problems and emotional concerns so they can work toward clearer routines and better coping.
How evidence-based methods translate to online care
Jose commonly uses cognitive-behavioral techniques and dialectical behavioral ideas to help people change unhelpful thinking and build stronger emotion-management skills. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on spotting thought patterns and trying small behavioral experiments. Dialectical behavioral strategies emphasize skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and practicing mindful awareness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals, symptoms, and daily routine. That means adjusting methods over time and combining tools that best support progress.
Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people keep therapy going while changing jobs or relocating within California. Ask about session logistics and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so the format lines up with your needs.
