Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I received my Masters from Cal State Fullerton in 2017. I have experience working with people of various backgrounds including but not limited to: adults, young adults, adolescents, children, parents, professionals, immigrants, POC, LGBTQ+, Hispanic/Latinx community, multi-generational families, and many more. I can be a listening ear and guide you towards your goals.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with introductions, getting to know each other, then once you are comfortable, you can share the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strengths are my ability to connect with others and my overall good intent for your well-being.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
My clients typically are young adults who may need some support in managing their mental wellness. I enjoy connecting with my clients and learning about them.
