About Jairo

Jairo Lozano-Lopez is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in California. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, low mood, and struggles with self-esteem. He also supports clients working through relationship and family concerns.

He speaks English and Spanish and offers sessions online by video, phone, chat, or text. Jairo uses a narrative approach to help people see how their life stories shape their feelings and choices. He pairs that with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice unhelpful thinking and build different habits.

Background and approach

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy adds ways to clarify values and act toward them even when emotions are strong. Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters to the client. Jairo aims to tailor each conversation and plan to the person in front of him.

He keeps language simple and concrete so people can use what they learn between sessions. Over eight years of practice, he has worked with a wide range of concerns including adoption and foster care issues, blended family problems, body image, communication troubles, dissociation, and immigration stress. He also addresses forgiveness, guilt, shame, and feelings of emptiness and isolation.

People usually begin by saying what feels most urgent. From there Jairo helps set short-term goals and practical steps. The work blends understanding personal stories with exercises to change patterns and build new ways of coping.

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how he works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Jairo directly how he uses it and what a session usually looks like.

How Jairo’s Approaches Work Online

Jairo uses Narrative Therapy to help people identify the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. That work helps uncover themes that keep problems alive and opens space to tell different, more helpful stories. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is also part of his practice; it focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when strong feelings appear. ACT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and motivation struggles.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. He will listen to a client's goals and preferences and then suggest a plan. The decision about which approaches to use is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face to face across distances. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be good for shorter check-ins. Chat and messaging allow ongoing contact and brief check-ins between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while keeping the focus on practical change and the client's priorities.
