Ajila Harris, LCSW

Ajila Harris, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hello, I am Ajila, pronounced (Ah-Ji-Lay). I have been practicing therapy for 20 years, with a Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Northridge. My main clinical focus is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT includes providing homework; therapy isn't for the therapist to "fix" things but to provide you with tools you can apply in your everyday life to help you succeed. Homework also helps keep you on track between sessions. CBT has been proven effective for a range of issues, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, relationship and communication challenges, trauma, and other mental health concerns. I approach each individual with respect and openness, listening to your story to identify goals and strategies that address your concerns. My experience includes working with adults, the homeless, veterans, and geriatric individuals on an individual level. My career has exposed me to a myriad of settings. I electively began my career working in the "skid row" district, which blossomed my passion and brought many welcomed challenges and learning experiences. I spent 10 years working in the hospital’s Emergency Room and inpatient psychiatric and medical units, allowing me to assist diverse individuals. I also have experience in community-based programs, senior outreach, and as a Veteran’s and homeless liaison. There is not a population I have not worked with. I am certified as a Clinical Supervisor, and if you are looking for someone to help you with your clinical hours, I am able to assist. I am looking forward to working with you!
