Getting to know Herbert Lomax Jr
Hi, I'm Andrew Mohamed, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker originally from NYC, and loving the California experience! I take a collaborative approach with my clients in identifying problem areas that influence unhealthy dynamics in their lives. This can include depressive experiences, anxiety-riddled moments, concerns around various relationships, or life transitions that feel challenging to navigate. And it's OK if you don't have it all figured out-we can unpack what's troubling you together.
I earned my Master's in Social Work from Columbia University, which has shaped my foundation in clinical practice.
My approach
I utilize a psychodynamic approach with an emphasis on mindfulness techniques to build healthier communication, self-awareness, and self-acceptance. I put great value in growing a positive therapeutic relationship with my clients, joining them in their �dark places' and working together to climb out. Together, we can identify the key players in your life's story and rewrite false narratives that no longer serve you.
My focus
As a Guyanese-American man of South Asian ancestry, I understand the importance of BIPOC representation and am honored to provide guidance to those who seek it. I enjoy working with motivated adults and couples from various walks of life who are curious about how their past impacts their present or who want to gain more awareness of what's going on for them and take meaningful steps toward accessing their higher sense of �self.� I'm interested in working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, multigenerational trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, and men exploring their understanding of �masculinity.�
My communication style
I've been told I provide a calm and balancing energy in sessions and am transparent and compassionate in my delivery. So when we need to go slow and you need someone to hear your side of things, I'm here.
