Getting to know Celeste Thompson

Hi there, I'm Celeste! My name is Celeste Thompson, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in the Inland Empire in California, serving clients across the state via telehealth. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Louisiana State University. Therapy is a vulnerable space, and one of my primary focuses is providing clients with a safe place where they feel seen, heard, and valued, and where their challenges and concerns are explored with curiosity and empathy. I work with clients to address a variety of concerns including unresolved trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, parenting, and life transitions by building on their strengths and resilience. My approach My approach to therapy is relational and client-centered. The most effective approaches to change are only truly effective when built on a foundation of trust and connection in a therapeutic relationship. The theoretical approach for each client depends on their needs and could include trauma-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, or attachment-based therapy. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space, meet clients where they are, and build on their strengths and resilience to help them progress to where they desire to be. My focus I work with a variety of ages, from children to adults, to explore the impact of current and past experiences on how they are feeling and functioning now. Whether these experiences have translated to depression, anxiety, parenting, relationship challenges, or another concern, we explore them together. I believe it is important to allow clients to guide the exploration at their own pace. My communication style My communication style is calm, conversational, personable, and humorous as appropriate. It is important that my clients feel connected and comfortable sharing what is important to them. My goal is that each client feels heard.
