Getting to know Briana Gonzalez

Hello, nice to meet you! My name is Briana Gonzalez, and I'd like to be an affirming support in your personal journey of self-understanding and healing. I am a telehealth-based licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I work with adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, life transitions, women’s issues, self-esteem/body image concerns, and difficulties with boundaries. I am especially passionate about supporting survivors of racial trauma and those experiencing insecurities within their biracial/multiethnic identity. I provide services completely via telehealth and am ideal for clients who prefer virtual sessions within the state of California. My approach My approach to therapy depends on the goals and personal needs of the clients I work with, and I strive to be as collaborative and client-centered as possible. While I typically utilize cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, trauma-focused, solution-focused, and attachment-based theoretical approaches, these are not exclusive. I tailor my methods to what the client’s needs may be in the moment during sessions. My focus I work with adults facing a variety of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I have a particular passion and niche in working with Black and/or multiracial/biracial adults who have experienced significant racial trauma that has impacted their life and sense of identity. I am also deeply committed to supporting individuals who have endured spiritual and religious trauma, especially related to spiritual bypassing in places of worship. My communication style I aim to create a warm, friendly environment where clients feel empowered to ask questions and share concerns, including feedback about treatment and progress.
