Getting to know Craig Nishioka
Hi there, I'm Craig!
My name is Craig Nishioka, and I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2013. I earned my Master's in Social Work from California State University Long Beach. I began my career working with children and families in the foster care and dependency court system in California. I have experience working with a wide variety of challenges. Much of my experience has been with people struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, and the challenges of parenting. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you possess the strengths to overcome the challenges you face. I look forward to facilitating this process and journey with you.
My approach
My main theoretical approach is cognitive behavioral.
My focus
I typically work with clients dealing with anxiety, depression, and work stress.
My communication style
I do my best to create a nurturing and understanding relationship, recognizing that we all have unique histories.
My journey to mental healthcare
I've always had a passion to serve others. I retired from public service as a social worker after almost 32 years. About two years into my retirement, I decided to give therapy a try, and I have enjoyed it since.
My goals for you
I believe that my clients are the experts and that setting goals is a joint effort.
My first session with you
My first session revolves around getting to know my clients and understanding their needs.
