Hello, my name is Rayven Battles, and I am a licensed clinical social worker in California (LCSW 91756). I earned my Master's in Social Work from California State University, Los Angeles. I treat disorders including but not limited to anxiety, mood disorders, psychosis, post-traumatic stress, grief, and personality disorders. I aim to assist clients with managing stressors and achieving emotional wellness by developing appropriate coping skills, building insight, and increasing protective factors. My approach In therapy, I use theoretical approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Seeking Safety, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Trauma Focused Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy depending on the individual's needs and goals. I focus on providing client-centered therapy in a supportive environment to promote healing and a sense of well-being. My focus I have experience working with clients ages 2 to 99 years old in community-based settings, outpatient clinics, and via telehealth. I am most comfortable treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Acute Stress Disorder, Schizophrenia, Personality Disorders, Behavioral Issues, ADHD, and behavioral issues. My communication style I use active listening, reflection, open-ended questions, empathy, humor, modeling, exploring, seeking clarification, and acceptance to create a safe and supportive environment when providing services to clients. I am a soft-spoken, compassionate, and understanding therapist. My personality traits allow clients to speak freely during sessions without fear of being judged or misunderstood. Most importantly, I seek feedback from clients to ensure that the services provided are helpful and in line with their goals. My journey to therapy I have a passion for helping clients achieve an optimal level of mental health. My desire to help others overcome challenges and excel in life led me to become a clinical social worker.
