About

Welcome! I’m Barbara and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been in this field for over a decade and I love what I do. I obtained my Masters in Social Work from University of Southern California and my clinical training at Family Service of Santa Monica and Project 180. Post graduation I worked for several community mental health clinics. I have worked with children, teenagers, adults, and families in a variety of settings including clinics, schools, and in-home.

I am drawn to this work because I love working with people and seeing them grow. Watching someone reach their goals is a fulfilling experience. I believe that each person is capable of achieving their goals. My role is to support you with the journey with a variety of strategies including non-judgmental feedback, improving insight, and developing healthier thinking patterns. I know that we can all benefit from extra support no matter how big or small the issue may be. I treat each person with respect, compassion, and understanding.

Hi there!

I hope to meet you soon!
