Getting to know Ana Lainez

Hi there, I'm Ana! I am Ana Yesenia Lainez, LCSW, a board-certified psychotherapist and clinical social worker from California. I work with adults and adolescents, providing care for patients who struggle with symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and sleep disturbances resulting from trauma, medical issues, grief, and life challenges. My approach I have extensive experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and have been a board-certified clinical social worker for six years. My treatment approach is rooted in eclectic therapy and often draws from evidence-based methods, including cognitive behavioral, attachment-based, mindfulness-based, narrative, psychodynamic, and solution-focused therapies. My focus I have excelled in working with adolescents and adults who face daily stressors due to depression, anxiety, and trauma. I am passionate and committed to helping my patients reach their goals. Additionally, I am fluent in both Spanish and English and am competent in addressing Hispanic cultural needs. My communication style My main goals for patients include utilizing the strengths they already possess and developing healthy coping mechanisms to foster healing. I believe that in my practice, patients can find a safe, empathetic space to embark on a journey of self-awareness. My unique experience with CBT helps patients improve their present situation. My journey to mental healthcare Personal and medical struggles instilled in me the need to support those affected by emotional stress. I studied at the University of California, Los Angeles, where I obtained a Master’s Degree in Social Work. I also worked for Optimist for four years, where I developed a collaborative and individualized approach that has been a crucial part of my practice and my patients' success and progress.
