Welcome! I'm Divinity Star. I'm a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Los Angeles County. I have worked with diverse clients across the various demographic populations that comprise our city and county. I have experience treating individuals and families, veterans, dual-diagnosed clients, teens, LGBTQIA community, Alt lifestyle, trauma survivors, and high acuity mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, and borderline personality disorder.
During our first session we will explore the challenges you face and the goals you have for yourself. Together we will develop a treatment plan that exemplifies your values. I believe in a client- centered approach to therapy which means you are the captain on your well- being journey, I am your guide. I will assist you in uncovering a pathways and overcoming barriers that keep you from being the best version of yourself.
I have an ability to connect with clients by focusing on your flow, your values and what works for you and your family. I am culturally and spiritually aware and acutely attuned to how these factors are influential in how we move through the world. This knowledge and awareness is what has allowed me to work with people of diverse cultures ethnicity, faiths and lifestyles in finding well being pathways that don't devalue belief systems or any way of life.
I welcome my clients to a safe space to find healing from trauma, which has led to a lifetime of anxiety, depression, and destructive patterns that create a barrier to leading a fulfilled life. I am a guide on the road to self-compassion, stronger relationships, healthy boundaries, and self-actualization.
In my nearly eight years of practice, I use an Eclectic Therapy approach with clients, often combining treatments such as CBT, ACT, Seeking Safety, DBT, and Psychodynamic to create personalized treatment plans for each client.
