About me

Hi! My name is Virginia and I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in California with 8 years of experience in providing mental health and case management services with adults, adolescents and the elderly. I have provided individual and group therapy to patient’s within the community mental health agencies, hospitals, and prisons. I have a passion for working with diverse and multi-cultural populations. I believe everyone has a unique story, journey, and life experience that needs to be shared and I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment to explore and express that story. The most crucial part of any therapy process is for you to feel safe and confident while telling your story. I am a compassionate and encouraging person who will always strive to create an atmosphere that not only empowers you, but also supports you.

My approach combines cognitive behavior, solution-focused, client-centered therapy that concentrates on mindfulness, self-exploration, and help build on one’s strengths and respect ones both past and present experiences. I will work with you to tailor a treatment plan and approach to what works best for you. You have taken the first step and I know it takes courage to seek help within the unknown. I know life right now may seem like a roller-coaster, but I am here and ready to take that step and help support and empower you. I look forward to working with you.

Virginia is a very good listener and always is supportive. She’s easily accessible and always takes the time to check-in with me outside of our weekly sessions. I highly recommend Virginia because of her expertise, dedication, and caring demeanor.

After 3 months of working with Virginia, I can honestly say it helped me so much with everything I was going through. It felt really good to have someone you can talk to 24/7. She is a great listener, has great feedback, very kind, intelligent, and outgoing. I would recommend her 10/10. If I ever need to come back I would definitely work with her again!

Virginia is like my guardian angel and fairy godmother all wrapped into one. She is so supportive, encouraging and really helps me dig deeper. She's also incredible at making sure I stay accountable and checks in with me throughout the week. I feel so incredibly lucky to have found her on here and I look forward to each session knowing she's going to help me peel back another layer! I will be forever grateful for the peace of mind and help Virginia has able to give me.
