Therapists in Downey, CA

My name is Elva Lopez and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Ventura, California and working with clients statewide via tele health. I am passionate about supporting all of my clients through challenges to experience healing and growth in their lives. I found that my style and approach are a good fit for adults who may be dealing with the challenges of life transitions and social pressures. This often takes the form of anxiety, depression, grief, and stress.

My passion for mental health stems from my recovery story. I fell in love with the people and organizations that helped me. And, when I starting helping others on the path of personal growth, I knew what I was put on this planet to do. So, I got out of the job I hated to pursue a Master's Degree in Social Work at USC. My approach to psychotherapy focuses on learning about the journey my clients have experienced. Followed by a solution-focused orientation that encourages forward progress and goal achievement. I believe that with love, support, and honesty anything is possible.

While my therapeutic roots are grounded in Jungian Depth Psychology and Psychosynthesis, I draw also from current ideas about quantum sciences and utilize altered states of awareness - such as mindfulness, meditation, and energy work, as well as the wisdom and practice of Native American traditions- to help each person find what works for their unique circumstance - so that they may experience a deeper connection to themselves and to the world around them.
