Getting to know Arlene Hovsepian

Hi there, I'm Arlene! Welcome to my profile! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I work with kids and adults facing anxiety, trauma, depression, and learning differences like ADHD and autism. With a background in both schools and mental health clinics, I bring a friendly, down-to-earth approach to help you feel supported, understood, and equipped with tools that make a real difference. I also offer Christian counseling for clients who want to incorporate their faith into the healing process. My approach My approach is warm, respectful, and all about making sure you feel heard and understood. I believe therapy works best when it’s a team effort—you’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m here to support you as you work toward the changes you want to see. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help shift negative thought patterns into more positive ones, which can improve how you feel and act. I also bring in mindfulness and tools from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help with emotional balance and coping skills. If you’re interested in Christian counseling, I incorporate prayer and Scripture into our sessions as part of a faith-based approach. My focus Are you or your child feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or the challenges that come with ADHD or autism? I work with both kids and adults who are navigating tough emotions, life transitions, and struggles with focus, self-esteem, or day-to-day stress. Whether you’re working through past trauma or learning new ways to manage anxious thoughts, I’ll be right there with you, as a teammate, helping you build confidence, develop coping skills, and move toward the goals that matter most to you. Together, we’ll work at your pace, in a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered. My communication style I communicate with authentic curiosity, kindness, and care. I take time to really listen, so you feel heard and understood, not rushed or judged. I’ll gently guide our conversations.
