Getting to know Oreta Draper
Hi there, I'm Oreta!
My name is Oreta Draper, and I have been practicing as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over seventeen years. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and have been in the mental health industry for over twenty years, providing various levels of counseling support. Over the years, I have found that everyone can use some help processing challenges in their life, where additional support may be needed to take steps toward their healing journey.
My approach
I provide an interpersonal, solution-focused approach on your path to healing. I have helped clients experiencing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, relational problems, and substance use through various treatment modalities.
My focus
I have many years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and anyone who needs someone to talk to in order to find themselves and move toward healing from everyday life stressors.
My communication style
I create a friendly, warm environment where my clients feel comfortable expressing their feelings and concerns. I am a good listener who wants to hear my clients’ stories to help them work toward their healing journey.
My journey to therapy
While attending college, I knew I wanted to pursue a career helping people or providing support for someone in need. After volunteering for various crisis lines, I saw how being a good listener and being present for someone can make a difference. I decided to pursue a career in Human Health Services and have since gained over twenty years of experience. I will provide an interpersonal, solution-focused approach on your way into your healing journey.
My goals for you
I believe success and progress in treatment come through making small steps toward happiness, finding peace within yourself, and discovering solutions and skills that help you feel better overall.
