Getting to know Puvanaspri Subramanian

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Santa Barbara, California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults and seniors and specialize in anxiety, stress, trauma, loss, and grief. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Grief Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help my clients make progress and start feeling better. My approach I base my therapy on your individual needs and what I feel will work best for you. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Grief Therapy, as these modalities are very effective with trauma, loss, and grief. These approaches create a safe environment, lead to a shared understanding of your experiences, and move us toward your desired goals. My focus I am committed to helping individuals who have experienced trauma, grief, or loss. I have worked extensively with children and adults who have faced these challenges, so I understand the impact trauma, loss, and other adverse experiences can have on individuals and their lives. These experiences often contribute to depression, anxiety, prolonged grief, substance misuse, and even impaired physical health. My communication style My communication style is client-centered, open, and tailored to your individual pathway toward healing, growth, and self-realization. I create a supportive environment where you can freely express your innermost thoughts and feelings without fear of criticism or judgment. Together, we build trust through open communication and expression. My journey to mental healthcare I was drawn to helping people from an early age, and at seventeen, I decided to become a social worker. I initially worked with children exposed to trauma and loss within the Child Welfare system, and seeing their lives transform has been the greatest reward for me.
