My name is Denisse Antonio, I speak English and Spanish. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with the purpose of helping individuals navigate the challenges they may be facing mentally, emotionally, physically, socially, and culturally. I have experience working with geriatrics, adults, and adolescents, who have struggled with diverse challenges such as anxiety, ADHD, depression, grief, identity/self-esteem, trauma, and life stressors.
I have utilized therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI) therapy, Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), solution-focused therapy, and guided self-help/talk therapy.
Therapy is an opportunity to explore, learn, and understand one’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It’s an opportunity to heal from painful emotions, memories, and trauma. I will foster a warm, supportive, collaborative, and safe environment in which to explore difficult topics, identify negative thinking patterns and/or behaviors, and process complex emotions. We will collaboratively develop coping skills, inner strengths, stability, self-awareness, and independence to live a better life.
