Getting to know Ayesha Bass

Hi there, I'm Ayesha! My name is Ayesha Bass, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of California. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Sacramento. I am skilled in addressing trauma, child abuse and neglect, complex family dynamics, grief, and adjustment to illness. My approach I am a Christian trauma-focused, strength-based, and humanistic approach therapist. I also commonly use person-centered therapy, CBT, motivational interviewing, and narrative therapy. My focus I work primarily with teens and adults. I am most comfortable treating mood disorders, grief, complex family dynamics, adjustment to illness, life transitions, relationship conflict, and self-esteem. My communication style I value providing a safe, non-judgmental, and private space for individuals. My goal is to offer warmth and acceptance during sessions and beyond. My journey to mental healthcare My journey as a therapist began in my childhood. Raised by a single mother and having experienced poverty, God has been my strength throughout. Growing up in diverse settings has given me an empathetic and genuine love for people, especially those from marginalized communities. Most of my extracurricular activities involved meeting the needs of others. After graduating with my Master’s in Social Work, I began a career doing what I naturally loved. I want to be the person I needed during some of the toughest times in my life. My goals for you Goal setting with my clients is a collaborative process. I believe people are the experts in their own lives, and my role is to provide support to help identify goals and create an action plan to achieve them. My first session with you During our first session, my goal is to get to know you and identify the key areas you want to address in therapy. I also hope to give you the chance to get to know me so you can build comfort.
