Hi there, I'm Valerie!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), living in San Diego, California. I currently work with both adolescents and adults, but my professional experience spans individuals of all ages. My practice is integrative in orientation and culturally informed, tailored to meet the distinct needs of each person.
My focus
I typically work with adolescents and adults. Areas of focus most worked on with clients have been anxiety, depression, life transitions, ADHD, and coping skills.
My approach
My approach is dependent on each individual's unique needs. I work to provide a space that is culturally relevant, supportive, and guided by your identified goals in therapy. I often incorporate cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, narrative, trauma-informed, and/or process-oriented modalities.
