Jennifer Casillas, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Jennifer!

As a clinician, I approach therapy as a dynamic and collaborative process. My practice areas include depression, anxiety, life transitions, and health and wellness.

My focus

I'm comfortable treating a multitude of conditions, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma history, and substance misuse.

My approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is my standard approach to therapy. I also utilize techniques from motivational interviewing, solution-focused, and mindfulness.

My communication style

My communication style is a balance of being clear, direct, and supportive.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a social worker, I have worked in many settings, including child welfare and hospitals. I'm interested in having a small private practice to provide full attention to my clients for maximum benefit.

My goals for you

Goal setting is an important aspect of therapy. I typically set clear goals with frequent check-ins. There is always flexibility with goals as therapeutic work is dynamic.

Our first session

The first session will be focused on getting to know each other. It will also include information on what to expect during the therapeutic process.
