Hi! My name is Regina and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California. First and foremost, I want to congratulate you on taking the first step towards "living your BEST life"! I have over a decade of experience working with people suffering from anxiety, depression, trauma/ racial trauma, relationship issues, women's health / fertility, and career stress. My experience includes inpatient and outpatient medical and mental health facilities, prisons, and psychiatric hospitals. As an African American woman, I pride myself on serving diverse communities and helping people like you find their voice! I love working with young and middle aged adults whom are aiming to overcome challenges within their workplace, personal/familial relationships, and/or are looking to build their self esteem and overcome anxiety and depression. I offer a patient centered approach in which we will work together to ensure that YOU have the necessary tools to feel fulfilled and thrive.
Our first session would be utilized for introductions, taking a deeper dive into some of the challenges you are facing, and establishing a plan for follow up. Therapy is a place where it is all about YOU and the goal is for you to leave our session with a sense of relief and optimism in knowing that you found the therapist to join you on your path of well-being! I wholeheartedly believe that having a positive therapist-client relationship that aligns with your goals and needs is pivotal to a successful therapeutic process, therefore I offer one free 15 minute consultation to mutually determine if I am the therapist for you prior to our initial session.
I have developed an tried and true approach to helping you 1) identify the cause of the issue at hand, 2) process your emotions around the issue, and 3) establish a game plan for a happier and healthier future through measured progress. Authenticity, empowerment, and growth are the core values of my practice. Therefore, if you are looking for someone who will remain authentic while empowering you to reach your highest potential, I encourage you to reach out!
I have over 10 years of experience utilizing a variety of therapeutic approaches that catered to meet the needs of my clients. Therapeutic approaches that I utilize are cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, motivational interviewing, client-centered therapy, trauma informed care, and faith based therapy.
