Getting to know MyKeisha Lewis
Hi there, I'm MyKeisha!
I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience working with children, teens, and adults. Over the past 20 years, I have supported patients suffering from a myriad of symptoms, including but not limited to exposure to trauma, depression, anxiety, mild substance use, grief from loss, and emotional distress.
My approach
I use a client-centered approach, collaboratively working with my clients to expand their understanding of their treatment needs. Using mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and focusing on the client's strengths, we build a treatment plan tailored to meet their needs and goals.
My focus
I have experience working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds and demographics. I specialize in treating clients who suffer from anxiety, mild to moderate depression, mild to moderate emotional and behavioral dysregulation, anger management, and trauma. I also have many years of experience in teen and child counseling.
My communication style
I provide a relaxed environment where patients are welcome to be themselves in every sense of the word. Communication is open, honest, and without judgment. I aim to build a strong rapport with clients so they feel comfortable in their most vulnerable moments of treatment. I am open, supportive, and understanding.
My journey to therapy
Growing up, I always wanted to help others. I found myself in roles such as an advocate, peer conflict counselor, and a sounding board of support for those around me. My career path became clear in graduate school at California State University, Hayward, where I earned my Master's in Social Work and recognized my passion for clinical therapy.
My goals for you
I work with my clients, allowing them to be the experts on their own lives and experiences. Treatment goals are set collaboratively so clients feel heard, supported, and in charge of their own treatment and healing process.
