Getting to know Salina Golightly-Mondragon

Hi there, I'm Salina! My name is Salina Golightly-Mondragon, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) working as a Mental Health Therapist with a primary focus on Individual Therapy and Couples/Marital Counseling. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Dominguez Hills. My approach My therapeutic approach incorporates Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Counseling, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Counseling, Rational-Emotive Therapy, Reality Therapy, and Interpersonal Counseling. My focus I work with young adults, adults, and older adults. I primarily treat clients experiencing Depression, Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Grief, Trauma and Loss, Mood Disorders, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, and Co-dependency. My communication style During sessions, my style is calm and personable. I focus on understanding clients’ needs by providing active listening and feedback, observation and silence for processing, client expression and reflection, clarification, and acceptance. I pride myself on listening without judgment. My journey to mental healthcare As a Social Worker for over nine years and a Mental Health Therapist for seven, my passion lies in helping people through painful struggles. I am dedicated to providing encouragement and empowerment that supports clients in their healing journey. I enjoy seeing individuals become the best versions of themselves. My goals for you I use goal-oriented and solution-focused interventions where skills and tools are learned in every session. My aim is for clients to take something valuable away from each session that helps them reach their therapeutic goals. My first session with you During the first session, clients can expect to answer personal questions, share their expectations and goals for therapy, discuss coping strategies, mental health history, and more.
