Getting to know Lauresha Zinatae Hawkins

Hi there, I'm Lauresha Zinatae! My name is Lauresha Z. Hawkins, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Southern California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I work with adolescents, adults, and mature adults, specializing in anxiety, depression, mood disorders, personality disorders, and stress. I use several modalities such as Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Problem Solving Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help clients make progress toward mental and emotional healing. My approach I approach therapy with an eclectic style tailored to meet the needs of each client I collaborate with. I frequently and interchangeably use Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Problem-Solving Therapy to develop a shared understanding of their reality and partner together to create a life worth meaning. My focus My style and approach are fitting for clients ages 12 to 99 who experience anxiety, depression, stress, and interpersonal difficulties often exacerbated by trauma, social pressures, and life transitions. Additionally, I aim to serve vulnerable populations, utilizing intersectionality to bridge gaps for those who may endure disadvantages or discrimination. I prioritize helping clients establish skills to navigate their feelings and thoughts, enabling them to develop a positive and constructive outlook on life. My communication style My communication style is personable, adaptable, and charismatic. I want to reassure clients that they can bring important topics to our sessions comfortably, as I pride myself on being a nonjudgmental listener.
