LCSW, 19 years of experience
My name is Dr. Isabella Vidriales, a Doctor of Counseling Psychology. I also practice as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, Arizona, and Nevada. My clinical approach is mainly trauma-informed as well as person centered, solution focused, and eclectic approaches customized to match the needs of my clients. Trauma is more prevalent than we think and its impact on an individual’s overall well-being can have devastating results. My holistic approach allows me the opportunity to explore and understand individuals as a whole. I work on empowering others so they can rebuild a strong foundation to fall back on when there are setbacks in life. I am passionate with helping clients on their journey of self exploration and personal growth. I am here to support you through this difficult process and to provide you with the beneficial tools to help you overcome this challenging moment. Life is a journey of our own and sometimes it leads us to a path of unfamiliar territory. Unexpected life events and circumstances often trigger our unresolved insecurities, fears, as well as relive past traumas. You don’t have to walk this path alone. I look forward to serving you. Together we got this!
Our sessions begin with an Intake, where information is gathered, and treatment goals and objectives are identified. Together we will explore what your goals are for treatment and what are the steps to reach your goals. You should expect a therapeutic environment that is compassionate, empathetic, and safe. My role is to offer you insights into your experiences and provide evidence-based treatment for mental health conditions. We will work on appropriate and tailored coping strategies for your specific issues.
My biggest strength is being able to empathize with you and bring my experience to help you resolve your issues. I have a broad spectrum of experience with trauma, anxiety, and depression.
In my work, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize and change unhelpful thought patterns that affect their emotions and behaviors. This structured, goal-oriented approach empowers clients to develop healthier coping strategies and improve their overall well-being. Through techniques like cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, and coping skills training, I guide clients in identifying negative thought patterns, challenging distortions, and replacing them with more balanced perspectives. I also encourage practical exercises and real-life applications to reinforce progress outside of sessions. By focusing on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, CBT helps clients gain control over their challenges and build long-term resilience.
