Getting to know Elena Manucharyan

Hi there, I'm Elena! My name is Elena Manucharyan, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Fresno, California, working with clients via telehealth. I earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I have experience working with adolescents and foster youth with high needs and specialize in anxiety, trauma, stress, and depressive disorders. I use Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client Centered Therapy to help my clients process their life events and move forward. My approach My approach to therapy varies based on each client's needs. I most frequently use Client Centered Therapy to meet my clients where they are and focus treatment on their personal goals and needs. I also incorporate art therapy techniques to provide creative methods of expression for clients who have difficulty expressing their emotions. My focus I have found that my approach and style are a good fit for youth and adults dealing with life challenges and social pressures or who have experienced criticism or disapproval for choices made. This allows me to offer acceptance, empathy, and guidance as clients work on personal growth and positive change. I also work with family members to provide skills that better support the client through mental health symptoms and life transitions. My communication style My communication style is calm, accommodating, and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable discussing anything without judgment. I also strive to be honest and open in my communication and encourage clients to do the same. My journey to therapy I chose to become a therapist to help individuals learn skills to build confidence and continue growing. I am especially drawn to working with adolescents and foster youth, teaching them how to advocate for their needs and recover despite the extensive trauma they have experienced.
