Sarina Silva

Welcome! My name is Sarina Silva and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I have been practicing in the field of Social Work for over seven years, with the last four doing individual therapy. I truly can’t see myself in any other field. I have experience helping clients overcome Anxiety, Depression, Shame, Guilt, Grief and navigating life adjustments. I am a woman of God and with my clients request incorporate a faith based approach in our sessions. However, if faith based is not your preference I totally respect you and your beliefs and will not incorporate this approach in our sessions. My main priority is creating a safe space to vent, untangle, and gain skills to support you through all of life’s ups and downs.

In our sessions I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Grounding, Empathy, Faith Based, Validation, and Person Centered Approaches. This allows me to build a trusting relationship and support my current and future clients while meeting you where you’re at in life.

Our first session together will be a bit non-traditional, in a sense this is where I will focus our time on gathering helpful information from you life experiences, and identify your goal of therapy to find an approach to best support you and your needs.
