Veronica Cisneros, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist #96678

Veronica Cisneros, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist #96678 Let’s go beyond the norm—together. My personal and clinical experience has assisted me in providing help to others in times of emotional and mental distress.

Therapy designed to help you live life fully. 🌿
We’re here with real tools for real people—teens, couples, and women navigating anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. I specialize in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and have been trained in Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT) and Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA). In my experience these theories have provided my clients with the tools they need to manage their lives. I have experience as a therapist for dual diagnosis, addiction, mental health, self-harm and mental illness. I would be honored in assisting you with this unique life journey. I am currently providing counseling support in a private practice setting, in Temecula, Ca. I accept most insurances and have reasonable rates.

POV: You finally reach the magical phase where the kids can mostly feed themselves, find their shoes, and maybe even wipe their own noses… and then BAM! Perimenopause shows up like, “Hey girl, miss me?” 🙃
It’s like the universe said, “Congrats on surviving toddlerhood, now let’s turn the thermostat up, mess with your sleep, and add a dash of mood swings for fun.” The hits just keep on coming for women.
That’s why therapy or coaching isn’t a luxury. It’s survival gear. Having a place to process, vent, and actually focus on you is what keeps the whole house from going off the rails.
Here’s your reminder: you don’t have to do this phase alone.

She’s chaos. He’s calm. Together? A whole vibe. 💃🧘‍♂️
Hyper-independent woman, business owner, wife, and mom energy = dancing like nobody’s watching… even if her husband is standing right there wondering how he got front-row seats.
Sometimes the wild energy is exactly what keeps the balance.

I went from “there’s traffic” to “we’re getting divorced and he never loved the kids” in 0.6 seconds. 🏅 In this episode, I’m breaking down the mental gymnastics of catastrophic thinking, why validation (from yourself and your partner) is everything, and how quickly arguments can spiral when insecurities get loud.
We also get real about what it actually means when your husband feels “emotionally unavailable,” how to stop personalizing every little thing, and the role of self-validation when you’re overwhelmed. Bonus: Willie jumps in to share the husband perspective: let’s just say he had thoughts. 👀
If you’ve ever gone from “he’s late” to “our marriage is doomed” in the span of a single car ride, this one’s for you: https://veronicacisneros.org/episode289/

When someone asks if I need help:

Me, a hyper-independent woman (already carrying 14 grocery bags, balancing a coffee, and unlocking the door with my pinky finger)

“Nope, I got it. Totally fine. Thriving.”

Why didn’t I work out? Why didn’t I make myself a priority?
Because something always comes up. If I wake up early, my daughter needs help. My partner needs something. A text pulls me back into fight-or-flight. And by the time I’ve handled everything for everyone else, I end up at the very bottom of my own list again.
Sound familiar? Maybe the first step isn’t a perfect morning routine or a color-coded schedule. Maybe it’s admitting that you deserve to be on the priority list too.
This Labor Day, give yourself permission to rest. Not because you’ve earned it, not because you’ve checked off every box—but simply because you’re human and you matter. 💛

When your daughter drops the line,
"I'm not being mean, you're just not used to hearing girls
stand up for themselves,
" it's a moment to reflect on how generational trauma plays out. For
years, women were taught to be quiet, agreeable, and avoid confrontation, often at the cost of
their own needs. That idea gets passed down, and it’s no wonder that when our daughters start
speaking up for themselves, it feels like a shake-up. But here’s the twist: this isn’t her being
“mean,
” it’s her breaking free from old patterns and finding her voice. That’s something to
celebrate, not squash.
From a therapy perspective, it’s a sign of healing. She’s learning to stand firm in her boundaries,
something many women of our generation didn’t get to do. So when she challenges you,
instead of cringing, take a breath and recognize it’s the start of something better. Your kid is
unlearning what took us years to figure out: how to speak up without guilt. You’ve just been
called out by the next generation of empowered women.

Life moves fast between balancing work, family, and everything in between. But
nature has a way of reminding us that it’s okay to slow down. In moments like
this, on a trail with my family, I remember why it’s so important to take a breath,
to reset. Reclaiming your space, whether it’s a quiet moment on a hike or just a
pause to listen, is an act of self-love. So, here’s a reminder: you can step away
from the chaos, and when you do, you might just find yourself again.

“Be a good girl. Do it all. Don’t mess up.”
Sound familiar? 👀
Megan Tobler got laid off the same week she announced her pregnancy, and instead of crawling back to corporate, she said nope. She built a business that actually fits her life (not the other way around).
In this convo, we talk about ditching hustle culture, starting before you feel ready, and why sometimes the best thing you can do is show up messy.
Because honestly? Just because we can do it all doesn’t mean we should.

You know that moment when your daughter looks at you like, “Mom, are you gonna let them talk to me like that?” Yeah, she already knows the answer.
Because let’s be real … I’m not just her mom, I’m her built-in bodyguard, hype woman, and life coach rolled into one. She doesn’t have to second-guess if I’ve got her back. She knows.
And here’s the therapist side of me talking: when our daughters grow up with that kind of safety, they learn to set their own boundaries, expect respect, and walk through the world knowing they’re worthy. That’s how we break cycles. That’s how we raise girls who don’t settle.
So yes, I’m raising a princess. 👑 Not a savage. Because true strength isn’t about tearing others down. It’s about knowing your own worth, standing tall, and surrounding yourself with people who lift you up.
And if you come for her? Let’s just say, this tiara comes with receipts.

As moms, we’re conditioned to believe “breaks” are something you earn after the laundry’s folded, the homework’s done, and the kitchen’s spotless. By that logic, our rest is always postponed… and then it never comes. I’ve been there too: squeezing in me-time only if there’s nothing left to do (spoiler: there’s always something left to do).
Here’s the truth I share with my clients and remind myself: breaks aren’t a luxury, they’re a necessity. When you give yourself permission to rest (without guilt) you don’t just recharge, you model balance for your kids. They see that mom isn’t a machine, she’s a human who deserves care too. And that lesson? It’s just as important as dinner on the table or clean clothes in the drawer.

You know that scene in Shrek where Donkey says,
“I’m making waffles!” and
Shrek just wants to sleep? That’s basically the “clock out” cycle in marriage. One
of you is chilling, the other is still running the whole damn castle.
Or maybe it feels like you’re stuck in The Hunger Games: may the odds be ever
in your favor as you juggle homework, dinner, and laundry while he’s already
“clocked out.”
Here’s the truth: the problem isn’t just that he takes a break—it’s that you don’t.
And waiting for permission to rest? That’s like waiting for Ross and Rachel to
finally get it together (spoiler: it takes 10 seasons).

You’re cooking dinner, helping with homework, folding laundry, managing meltdowns… and he’s already “off the clock.”
It’s frustrating, right? But here’s the kicker: the problem isn’t always that he clocks out. It’s that you don’t.

👉 You don’t claim your downtime.
👉 You don’t set boundaries.
👉 You keep waiting for permission.
And that cycle? It just fuels resentment, scorekeeping, and late-night arguments.
The good news? You can step out of the cycle. Couples therapy can help you stop playing tug-of-war, communicate what you actually need, and build a marriage where you both get to clock out—and back in—without losing each other.
