Getting to know Connie Whelan
My name is Connie Whelan, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I earned my Master's in Social Work from California State University, San Bernardino. With over 16 years of experience, I have helped adults and seniors navigate a wide variety of challenges. I use a strengths and solution-focused approach to create unique plans that support each person in becoming their best self.
My Approach:
My counseling style is solution-focused, client-centered, and strengths-based. I incorporate CBT, Behavioral Activation, Motivational Interviewing, and strength-based techniques to assist clients seeking meaningful change in their lives.
My Focus:
I work with young adults, adults, and seniors facing a broad range of issues. Many clients initially present with concerns such as depression, anxiety, worry, sleep disturbances, family or relationship challenges, and financial stress.
My Communication Style:
During therapy, my communication is interactive, supportive, and collaborative. Through thoughtful questioning, active listening, and gently challenging old patterns of thinking or behavior, we explore new ways to approach life's challenges together.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My Goals for You: My therapeutic goal is to identify areas of concern and work on developing healthy coping skills. Together we discuss ways to improve the area of concern through weekly goals and/or assignments. As new skills emerge, we re-evaluate and set new goals. My First Session with You: The first session is for the client to share why they ar seeking therapy. It is your time to share your story, why you chose to seek treatment now and what you would like to get from therapy.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
