Getting to know Ziesha Waters-Carrico

Hi there, I'm Ziesha! Hello, my name is Ziesha Waters-Carrico, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Los Angeles, CA. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I have spent my career working with people experiencing symptoms of depression and anxiety that have become unmanageable. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based practices, I assist clients in overcoming negative thinking and achieving personal growth. My approach I believe everyone's experience with stress is different, so it’s important to understand your stressors and how they affect your life. Together, we decide the best approach to help you achieve your therapy goals. I commonly use CBT, Problem-Solving Therapy (PST), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Strength-Based approaches to help overcome life stressors. My focus I typically work with adult professionals whose depression and anxiety affect work, relationships, daily living, self-esteem, and social activities. I enjoy helping others gain insight and develop skills to put the puzzle together. Coming to therapy is a first step to becoming the best version of yourself. Whether you feel overwhelmed, worried, unmotivated, or stuck, it’s important to know there is light on the other side of the tunnel. My communication style It’s important that clients feel safe and supported while sharing vulnerable parts of themselves. I strive to create an environment filled with empathy and warmth. Client-therapist relationships should feel like a team and a form of support. My style is direct, non-judgmental, supportive, and motivating throughout our work together. I also enjoy including a little humor in sessions because sometimes we deserve a good laugh.
