Hi there, I'm Athena!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Southern California. I have worked for many years providing mental health counseling, workers' rights/union steward services, advocacy, and medical social work.
My focus
I specialize in helping clients cultivate coping skills and gain insight into issues to improve relationships, functioning, and quality of life. I enjoy working with adults of all ages, and my focus is on helping clients cope with strong emotions brought about by depression, anxiety, stress, grief, chronic illness, and addiction.
My approach
My therapeutic approach varies based on the needs of the client. I have an eclectic practice, partnering with my clients to select their treatment approach.
