Getting to know Vanessa Arreola

Hi! My name is Vanessa Arreola, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW116088). I hold a Master's in Social Work from California State University, Bakersfield. I provide a safe place to explore your emotions, thoughts, and experiences to foster resilience and cultivate inner peace. My approach Together, we will find the treatment modality that works best for you to reach your goals. I often use a Person-Centered, Solution-Focused approach while identifying distorted cognitions. Trauma-Informed Care and exploring how early attachments and trauma influence your life are common areas I address. My focus I typically work with adolescents and young adults experiencing anxiety and depression. I also help clients dealing with grief and loss. Additionally, I assist clients in bridging communication gaps and fostering or restoring healthy relationships. My communication style I am open-minded about different situations and experiences. I have "heard it all" regarding trauma and life challenges. I believe being authentic and compassionate is essential to help clients feel safe enough to share openly. Ensuring clients feel comfortable and not judged is vital to building trust in the client-therapist relationship. My journey to mental healthcare I began considering this profession early in my career with social services. I've worked with dependents of the court (foster care system) for over fifteen years. I enjoy talking to individuals about their feelings and emotions and have seen how the lack of mental health services for those who have experienced trauma leads to grief, maladaptive coping behaviors, and poor decisions over time.
