Hi. I'm a licensed clinical social worker and received my Masters from USC. I've provided therapy since 2010. I've spend 14 years working with adolescents but i also have experience working with veterans and people with addiction.

I've spend 14 years working with adolescents but i also having experience working with veterans and people with addiction.

I've worked with people that have PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, anger issues, drug and alcohol addictions; I've also facilitated various groups in schools and in psychiatric facilities. If you are looking for someone that focuses on themes of Existentialism, I am not your person. I like to focus on concrete goals that are measurable and observable.

First session

In our first session, we'll spend time getting to know one another. I'll explain how i operate and answer any question you may have; this will be a time to see if you and I will be a good fit

Strengths

I've never felt that I'm the expert in my client's life and I'm here to "cure" them. I see myself as a guide in your journey to reach your goals. I tend to build rapport quickly and I also don't try to take myself very seriously

Ideal clients

I love working with teens (high school age) to young adults; in particular, I work with clients who have anger issues, depressive symptoms and substance use;

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Most of my training has been utilizing CBT due to the correlation between feelings, thoughts and actions; however, research shows that above all disciplines, the therapeutic alliance has a more significant impact

Solution-Focused Brief Treatment

I believe the client has the strength and resilience to achieve the goals they set; the client has the solution to overcome

Ozzie is a very smart, empathetic, and down to earth therapist with a mind that’s ready to help you change and get better. Very very happy with him and it’s only been 1 session so far. I’m very excited for the future sessions with Ozzie.
