Meet the Therapist
Cesar Ornelas, CA LMFT 142784
My experience in the mental health field has allowed me to work with a wide variety of people, problems, and needs. I received my degree in Marriage, Family, & Child Counseling from Fresno State. I completed most of my clinical supervised experience in community mental health where I provided speciality mental health services to individuals experiencing severe mental/emotional challenges. I also had the opportunity to work with the foster care population and families receiving support from child welfare social services. More recently, my work has been primarily in private practice.
Working with me as your therapist, you will find that I am humorous, encouraging, nurturing, and collaborative. I encourage authenticity and show it myself. I utilize an integration of psychodynamic, humanistic, and behavioral therapy models to help guide the therapy process and promote change. Overall, my goal is to help individuals live healthier and fulfilling lives.
