Juana Gonzalez, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Juana! My name is Juana Gonzalez, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master's in Social Work from California State University, San Bernardino. I am dedicated to helping those experiencing distress and life changes that affect everyday functioning by using a holistic approach to treatment. My approach The theoretical approaches I use are cognitive behavioral, person-centered, and holistic. My focus I typically work with clients experiencing anxiety and difficulty coping due to stress and life changes. I primarily work with women and elderly clients who need tools for managing life changes and stressors. My communication style I use a quiet tone and a non-confrontational style. I also use reflective listening and motivational techniques to encourage and assist clients in finding their own solutions. My journey to therapy I have been working with abused children and adults for over 30 years. In my experience as a case manager in these programs, I learned that case management offered limited opportunities to provide direct services and support due to restrictions and mandates. This led me to pursue my licensing so I could work closely with clients who are in crisis and struggling with life changes and adjustments. My goals for you After the initial intake, I discuss the client's needs, identify their priorities, and formulate goals together. My first session with you I introduce myself and allow clients to use this time to discuss their needs, reasons for coming to therapy, and what they would like to accomplish by setting goals. During this session, I also discuss privacy, confidentiality, and what clients can expect from me.
