Hi! I’m Felicia Williams, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I am grateful you’re here to see me. I am a highly compassionate, empathic social work professional dedicated to exceptional mental health services including effective treatment to diverse population including children, youth, and families struggling with persistent mental illness. I enjoy working with individuals who are also or was a part of the foster care system, anxiety, depression, Bipolar, and trauma.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session we will complete introductions, and begin to build rapport. I don't want our sessions to feel like counseling sessions. I want it to be fun, and interactive. While I do believe in asking hard questions, making you think, and talking about the things we don't like to talk about, I also want you to feel safe, heard, and understood. I want you to have tangible tools you can put into practice after sessions that help you work towards your goals. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling a little lighter and more hopeful than you did when you logged on to complete your session with me
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a provider, my greatest strengths include exceptional communication skills, a genuine ability to empathize with patients, a strong commitment to patient education, a proactive approach to problem-solving, and the capability to build trusting relationships which allows me to effectively understand and address their individual needs.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I utilize techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy to empower clients to manage their mental health daily by addressing their current thought processes and actions rather than solely focusing on past experiences. I like to focus on the here and now .
Attachment-based
I enjoy using attachment theory to understand my client and how people form emotional bonds with others, especially with their primary caregivers during infancy
Trauma-Focused CBT
In my practice, I utilize a trauma-informed approach, which means I actively consider the potential impact of past trauma on a client's current behaviors and emotions, ensuring a safe and supportive environment where they feel empowered to share their experiences without fear of re-traumatization; this involves actively listening to their narratives, validating their feelings, and tailoring interventions to their specific needs
