Louise Scott, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Louise!

The first step to success in therapy is to trust a clinician who can tackle the emotional challenges that you desire to improve.

My focus

I have worked with thousands of individuals who have had varied backgrounds, including multicultural, Gay, domestic violence, sex abuse, and stressful family situations. My focus has been with adults.

My approach

Most often, I utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy with an eclectic style of other therapies. I would invite you to discuss issues such as depression, anxiety, sexual abuse, and trauma, as well as other concerns.

My communication style

I utilize a creative and sometimes humorous perspective to balance the emotions while tackling difficult topics that a client may have experienced. I personalize the session based on your learning style and worldview.

My journey to mental healthcare

Before participating in a Master's in Social Work, my undergraduate studies were in teaching. I have been involved in the public, private, and home schooling sectors as well as a school board chairperson. These exposures prepared me for an insightful understanding of the many ways people learn.

My goals for you

The goals are based on your incentive to discover new ways to utilize positive thinking and coping skills.

Our first session

The first session encompasses discussing your goals and issues you would like to consider improving and understanding, as well as assessing your mental health status.
