Hello! My name is Tifanni Sanabria and I am a Licensed Clinician Social Worker in the state of California. I have experience working with children, adults, couples and families using trauma-informed practices. If you need a safe space to unpack how trauma impacts your daily life and feel better you can come to me. I combine my clinical training with an ecological model, recognizing how systems of oppression impact our mental health. Let's grow together!

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

In working with me, I will gather information about your personal background history and explore how experiences and relationships impact your current life functioning. I will focus on providing you with insight and tools to address symptoms of trauma. Our sessions are for you and catered to the best way for you to receive information. If you are a visual learner, I use virtual tools to draw and write out concepts for you. If you are goal oriented, we can focus on weekly goal achievement. If worksheets encourage you to engage in self care, I have plenty of useful tools. Your schedule can also be adjusted to meet your needs (e.g. 1-2 sessions a week or 1-2 sessions a month).

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

My strengths come from my experiences as a clinician. Once meeting me you'll find that I'm easy to talk to because I recognize that you are the expert of your own life. I try not to assume I know what is best for someone else and humbly acknowledge the pitfalls in the field of psychology. I encourage everyone I work with to find a therapist that you can feel open and honest with, because that is truly the most important part of therapy; the relationship you have with your therapist. I hope it is with me, but if it is not I will support you in finding a therapist who will meet your needs.
