Getting to know Minjoy Cato
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from Loma Linda University Medical Center. I have a history of providing a variety of mental health and case management services to individuals in diverse settings. I am dedicated to helping and supporting adult individuals from a Christian faith-based perspective to improve their self-esteem, increase healthy coping skills to build resiliency, and enhance functioning in order to achieve overall mental wellness with a more positive outlook. I work with individuals experiencing mild symptoms and functional impairment due to unexpected interruptions in their daily personal lives or work settings.
My treatment methods include Christian Counseling, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Reality Therapy, Person-Centered and Strength-Based approaches, and Psychoeducation. My treatment specialties focus on improving coping skills and self-esteem.
In my professional opinion, Telehealth is not appropriate for all mental health problems or psychiatric issues, such as those presenting in crisis or for individuals struggling to manage chronic severe symptoms that may require hospitalization. If you are in crisis and need immediate assistance, please call 988 for the Suicide/Self-Harm Hotline or text the word HOME to 741741.
