Greetings, and congratulations on making the decision to improve your life situation. Whether or not you choose to work with me, your choice to obtain counseling and therapy assistance for your concerns will have beneficial effects for you and the people close to you. I am a mature professional, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, with may years of experience. I have worked with individuals of all ages, as well as couples and families. I am diverse in my approach and firmly believe that therapeutic goals must be made in conjunction and agreement with the individual seeking therapy. I lived overseas for a number of years so I am sensitive to cultural differences. I have specialized training in military trauma, as well as with adults with different types of trauma. I enjoy working with people who are seeking to meet goals they they have not yet been able to achieve, and to recognize the strengths they possess and to develop strategies to maximize those strengths.
I look forward to embarking on this journey with you. You CAN achieve your goals!!

Brian is helpful and not judge-mental about what it is you have to say. He is willing to listen to you and gives you feedbacks and ask questions.
