About Pascale
Pascale Dellefield is a California licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 21 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, grief, relationship problems, parenting strain, addiction concerns, ADHD, and anger. Pascale speaks English in therapy and draws on many years of clinical work across different settings.
Pascale blends client-centered listening with practical skills. She uses mindfulness, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior tools, and solution-focused planning to help people manage intense feelings and day-to-day problems. Sessions often include reading and skill-building homework to practice new ways of responding between meetings.
Her approach emphasizes reconnecting with what matters in daily life. She aims to help people notice patterns, reduce reactivity, and build clearer communication with others. That includes learning ways to calm down in the moment and to address ongoing sources of frustration and resentment.
Pascale has worked with a wide range of issues including severe mental health conditions and life disruptions. She also has experience with cultural, spiritual, and migration-related challenges and brings that awareness into sessions when it is relevant.
Practical elements such as concrete skill practice and short-term problem solving are key parts of her work. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session formats before booking and to follow the site's steps for scheduling an initial meeting.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Pascale uses client-centered listening and practical skills work in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on respectful listening and helping people clarify what matters to them; it works well when someone needs to sort out priorities and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches ways to notice thoughts and try different responses; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing angry reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete distress-tolerance and emotion-regulation skills to reduce impulsive responding and improve relationships.Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative. Pascale will help clients identify which methods fit their goals and daily life, then adjust techniques as progress and needs change. Sessions combine discussion with short practice exercises and take-home skill work when that is helpful.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and keeping momentum between appointments. If you want to know which session formats are available, please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to check in during a break, use video for role practice, or do shorter check-ins when life is hectic.
