Hi, my name is Ariane and I am a California-based LCSW. I earned my Masters at the University of Illinois but returned to my home-state to further my career. I provide a safe space for clients to work through their struggles without judgement and guiding clients toward their goals. I meet clients where they are at and work together while providing an outside perspective and psycho-education as needed.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I will meet you with empathy and unconditional positive regard. I hope to have clients feel supported, engaged, and to work collaboratively to reach their treatment goals.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I have worked in a variety of settings with a variety of clients including adult mental health facilities, youth group homes, providing case management for adults with developmental disabilities, case management for adults discharged from the hospital, school-based counseling, and tele-therapy. This experience allows me to provide support to a wide variety of clients. I enjoy working with individuals who are goal-oriented, but maybe don't have the tools to be able to reach their potential.
