About me
My name is Felicia Burnett-Lopez, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been working in the mental health field for over ten years. I earned my Bachelors’ Degree in Psychology and earned my Masters’ Degree in Social Work. My education and experience include human behavior; environmental and biological psychology, substance abuse and addiction; understanding and working in mental health, with people with mental illnesses, within all populations.
I chose the field of social work and specifically mental health, since everyone, including myself have life issues, whether they are work related or personal in nature. Being able to have someone who is unbiased and trained to help you process your thoughts, and become part of your support system, is why I chose this career. I enjoy the use of the psychodynamic approach, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, solution focused therapy, and client-centered-therapy, which are all evidenced based practices.
My use of these modalities depends on the needs of my client, as treatment is individually tailored to fit the clients needs. I believe that the client is the expert of themselves, and my role as your counselor is to help you better understand yourself, and help you get to a place where you are a happier and healthier version of yourself. The one thing I ask of my clients, is to be genuine, as I will always be genuine with you. Feel safe to vent your true feelings, as I will not judge you!
Counseling only works if the client is willing and committed to actively participating in the therapeutic process. I look forward to working with you and helping you improve the quality of your life!

Felicia is awesome. I've been working with her for the past two years. I tried different therapists in between to see if I could get a different perspective but that was a huge mistake. I tried three different other therapists and none of them provided the insight, professionalism and level of caring that Felicia does. I won't try anyone else ever again.

My therapist for over a year. She has a great, very pragmatic style and getting to communicate back and forth has helped me work through a variety of situations. Combined with medication, has really helped me with work through my depression and become a confident and proactive person when it comes to my life problems.

I've been seeing Felicia for over a year now. I appreciate her unique perspective and feel she can relate to many of my struggles. I think she listens and challenges my beliefs in a respectful way that helps me start to see where I can make improvements. I also like her focus on self-care, which I've often struggled with.

Felicia is awesome! She is able to relate to me, and also tell me things that I may not want to hear, but still in a way where I can receive the suggestion/critique. It’s not condescending and quite supportive, but still holding me accountable at the same time. She’s great and has give me a chance to see things differently. Life with FACTS and not ASSUMPTIONS!!! This technique definitely helped me with my anxiety, and I truly appreciate her for that. :-)
