Hi. My name is Marie Velasco and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of California. I work with adolescents and adults who are experiencing a variety of life stressors and work towards finding practical coping skills to help manage and reduce the symptoms they are experiencing. Empathy, acceptance, growth and safety are the cornerstones of my practice. I use a blended, integrative approach to therapy in order to address each person as an individual. Some of the theoretical approaches you'll find in my work are CBT, DBT, solution focused and mindfulness, to name a few.
In my current practice, I work with clients from age 13 and up. I have extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss, and trauma. I work with a variety of populations including the LGBTQIA community, pregnancy and postpartum, and those experiencing medical comorbidities.
My intention is to make your session time a space that is calm, comfortable and safe. I provide a space for you to process your emotions and discuss concerns and stressors you are experiencing.
Take the first step to help. Call or Marie Velasco now - (323) 471-0879
