Getting to know Sierra Lopez
Hi, I?m Sierra! I?m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master?s in Social Work from California State University, Sacramento. I?m constantly evolving in this field to ensure I provide the safest and most supportive environment for my clients. I have extensive training and experience working with a multitude of diagnoses and life challenges. My focus is being a tool to help you along your healing journey.
My approach
I work heavily with Cognitive Behavioral Interventions and also have experience using DBT to minimize self-harming and other risk behaviors, motivational interviewing, family therapies, and trauma-informed care.
My focus
I?ve worked with teens, young adults, and older adults who struggle with symptoms of depression, anxiety, mania, trauma, and substance use. So much of our mental health affects other areas of life, and I?d love to be the one who helps walk you through interpersonal issues, problems at your job, and challenges in relationships with others.
My communication style
I like to be direct with my clients in a way that helps you walk away with clarity while feeling supported in your next steps. I value transparency and honesty and make clients feel cared for by being my authentic self.
My journey to therapy
I knew I wanted to be a therapist since I was 12 years old. My personal experience in therapy brought me to a level of insight about myself that I never thought I?d reach. Over the years, the more I healed, the more I wanted to help others heal too. I?ve worked closely with individuals who experience mild, moderate, and severe mental illness, and regardless of how that manifests, I see the person. I center treatment around who you are, not just what you experience, and seeing clients become their most true selves brings me so much joy.
My goals for you
Goal setting is collaborative. I will meet you exactly where you?re at and also provide my clinical judgment on what might work best for what you?re trying to accomplish.
