LCSW, 6 years of experience
Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based out of San Diego, California. I graduated with my MSW from University of Southern California in 2018. I enjoy working on issues like self-esteem, body image, healthy relationships, attachment and trauma. I work well with clients who are seeking therapy for the first time and possibly feeling anxious about the process.
During the first session, I ask lots of questions but there is no pressure to dive into anything too fast. I try to get a sense of what the client is looking for and come to an agreement on next steps.
I'm a good listener, warm, down to earth and intuitive.
I like working with young adults navigating life transitions such as career, relocation and relationship endings.
I use CBT to identify unhelpful thought patterns and core beliefs.
I use motivational interviewing to support behavioral changes based on your values and future goals.
