Hello! My name is Stacia, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, specializing in therapy services in California. Providing therapy is my career, but it is also a passion of mine. To help another person learn to navigate their own struggles is a blessing in itself. "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime". I would love to work with you to navigate whatever it is you are going through! I have been providing therapy services since 2015, and have worked with all ages. I am currently providing online therapy services young adults (aged 18 and up) who are currently struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, grief and loss, work stress, life stressors and life transitions. Therapy sessions are conducted online.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I am very solution and goal oriented, so you will be leaving sessions with goals every week.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I am a very flexible therapist, and want to meet you where you are at! I utilize CBT in my therapy practices which is the study based on our thought patterns and how to create more positive thinking. CBT addresses current thinking patterns, but also works on how they were created and negative core beliefs tied to them. Through this practice, trauma can also be uncovered and processed in sessions. My goal is to help you feel at peace again by processing the past and working towards your future at the same time.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I specialize in working with young adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress, and/or family/relationship issues. I ask a lot of reflective questions to challenge my clients in sessions and encourage clients to leave sessions with a goal and intention for the week (tasks to complete, things to work on, or behaviors & thoughts to keep track of). I like working with motivated clients who can be honest and stay true to themselves in sessions and are ready for change.
