Darecia Miller-McCant, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Darecia! My name is Darecia Miller-McCant, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in the San Francisco Bay Area, California. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from California State University, East Bay, and a Bachelor’s degree from Patten University. I work with adults and older adults, specializing in depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and stress. My approach I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns that increase negative behaviors and reactions, replacing them with more beneficial and useful ways of thinking when facing challenges and stress. As thoughts become more helpful to your perspective on life stressors, behaviors and feelings usually follow suit. My focus I have found my style and approach best fit adults (18+) and older adults (65+) who are working to identify and manage unhelpful thoughts, difficult emotions, and behavior patterns that have limited their opportunities for compassionate self- and other-directed thoughts, rewarding activities, positive relationships, and new ways to manage emotions and behaviors successfully. My communication style My communication style is calm, compassionate, and friendly. I want my clients to feel at ease talking with me, knowing they are being listened to, heard, encouraged, and not judged for sharing their thoughts and feelings. I come with the understanding that we have all fallen short of being our best selves in life’s situations, but with each day, we can strive to become better. My journey to mental healthcare I consider it an honor and privilege to be part of people’s journeys toward positive solutions that improve their psychological and emotional well-being. Becoming a full-time therapist has blessed me with the opportunity to provide deeper, meaningful, and transformative work with others while simultaneously supporting and facilitating my own personal growth and transformation.
