Getting to know Sheila Castillo

I may not be the answer to your challenges, but I am invested in helping you find them. With a Master's in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago and a Bachelor's from California State University, Fullerton, I bring 5 years of experience in the mental health field combined with 5 years of Christian leadership. This background positions me to empower individuals in finding mental, spiritual, emotional, and relational healing. The majority of my work has been with high school students, inner-city youth, and children involved with the foster care system. I have extensive experience supporting children and teenagers facing trauma, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and family and relational issues. Trauma-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and strength-based practices are tools in my everyday toolbox. I am especially excited to incorporate a biblical-based approach to accompany treatment for those who welcome it. I look forward to walking alongside you or your loved one during this season of your life.
