Getting to know Allena Perez
Hi there, I'm Allena!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Georgia, with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Georgia. I have dedicated my career to helping individuals overcome symptoms of depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and life-changing medical diagnoses.
My approach
My therapeutic approach draws on fundamentals of CBT, DBT, IPI, MI, and solution-focused therapy. I believe treatment methodologies are not one size fits all; however, my warmth and empathy are shared with everyone.
My focus
I have experience treating individuals ages 18 and older. I work with clients battling depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and life-changing medical diagnoses. I have also helped individuals facing issues related to racial, ethnic, and gender discrimination.
My communication style
My communication style is warm and empathetic. I provide a nonjudgmental space for my clients.
My journey to therapy
I deeply care about helping individuals discover the power they hold within. I am driven by seeing my clients achieve their goals.
My goals for you
Therapy is a collaborative effort that requires openness without judgment. It is a tool to empower oneself to realize the true power they already hold within.
My first session with you
During the first session, I will introduce myself and discuss standard procedures for scheduling appointments, confidentiality, and communication between sessions. I will ask many questions to learn about your history and discover your goals for treatment.
