Getting to know Rebecca Ruiz

Howdy, my name is Rebecca Ruiz! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Los Angeles, California, working with adolescents, adults, and older adults via telehealth and in person. I earned my Master's in Social Work from California State University, Los Angeles. My focus areas include trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, schizoaffective disorder, stress, codependency, relationship issues, domestic violence, and anger management. I help clients address their challenges using various approaches, such as Trauma-Informed Care, Strengths-Based, Mind-Body Connection, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapies. My approach My therapeutic approach centers around each individual's unique situation and needs. Common methods I implement include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, Psychodynamic Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Mind-Body Connection, Strengths-Based Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My focus I typically work with adolescents, adults, and older adults (ages 12-60) dealing with bipolar disorders, anxiety, depression, schizoaffective disorder, co-occurring substance use disorders, trauma, and issues related to stress, grief and loss, codependency, relationships, adverse childhood experiences, school, and work. My communication style As a therapist, I'm warm, compassionate, professional, and easy-going. I'm gentle but firm! I have a great sense of humor and enjoy making clients smile and laugh while creating authentic interactions. I build non-judgmental relationships to create a safe space where clients feel comfortable engaging in introspection, working on their challenges, and learning adaptive coping skills. My journey to mental healthcare My personal experiences with grief and loss, childhood trauma, life transitions, and other significant events inspired me to become a therapist.
