Yesenia Orozco-Vasquez, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Yesenia!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Los Angeles, California, with ample experience working with children, teens, parents, and young adults. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and life transitions and utilize CBT, IPT, and Positive Parenting Program (Triple P) practices to build my clients' strengths and improve their relationships.

My focus

Much of my clinical training has been as a community and school-based therapist, and as such, I have had the opportunity to work with many children, teens, parents, community, and school partners dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes.

My approach

I use a strengths-based and cognitive behavioral approach tailored to your needs. Together, we'll gain clarity on what's contributing to your distress and develop practical strategies to help you feel better.

My communication style

My style is calm, supportive, and collaborative. I create a safe space where you can feel heard without judgment. I understand therapy can feel daunting, so I work to earn your trust in the process.

My journey to mental healthcare

I chose to become a therapist because I have always enjoyed helping others find ways to find their path to resilience. Growing up, I was able to witness the impact that positive relationships (mentors, teachers, therapists, etc) can have on building that resiliency, and I strive to do that in my practice.

My goals for you

Goal setting is a collaborative process. I explore your needs and expectations, then help you identify specific goals that feel meaningful and achievable for you.

Our first session

The first session is about building an initial connection and understanding how you've been feeling recently. I'll ask questions to get to know you and gain insight into what may be contributing to your experience.
