Getting to know Erika Morales
Therapy can be highly transformative when combined with intention and intuition. I'm a Chicanx Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, born and raised in Los Angeles. I earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I work with BIPOC-identified individuals open to learning new ways of healing and growing. Each client brings unique lived experiences, and I do my best to provide a safe and open space for both client and therapist to be vulnerable during sessions.
My work has focused on trauma, family relationships, domestic violence/intimate partner violence, depression, and anxiety. I collaborate with clients to process, challenge, and heal from the experiences they have encountered, as well as prepare them for future adversities.
My expertise lies in multiple areas: narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, seeking safety, interpersonal therapy, feminist therapy, and I am domestic violence counseling certified. I look forward to meeting you and joining you on this journey.
