Getting to know Claudia Perez

Hi there, my name is Claudia Perez, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in San Diego, California. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University, San Bernardino. I’m here to create a lighthearted space for clients to unpack various areas in life such as childhood adversities, generational trauma, relationships, grief, traumatic events, substance use, and family dynamics, among other significant topics. This may be your first time sharing your story with someone; I applaud you for taking the first step in your journey to healing and growth. My approach is client-centered and tailored to each individual’s needs. I consistently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Problem-Solving Interventions, Motivational Interviewing, and Crisis Interventions. I provide a safe space to facilitate insight through mindfulness, coping mechanisms, and empowerment. I have found that my style and approach work well with teens and adults who may be experiencing challenging life transitions and hardships. We often face challenges that interfere with our ability to live life to the fullest. For many, this can present as depression, anxiety, grief, stress, and trauma. I believe that by embarking on the journey of healing, one can build skills to navigate life transitions, embrace emotions, and gain confidence. I aim to create a calm, positive, non-judgmental, and welcoming therapeutic environment. My goal is for clients to express themselves freely without hesitation while I provide support, empathy, and compassion. Have you ever heard the saying, “be the person you needed when you were younger”? I became interested in becoming a therapist because I noticed a gap between taking care of your physical and mental health simultaneously. I’m here to support you in bridging that gap on your path to wellness.
