Tugba O'dell

Hi, I'm Tuba. I'm a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and I work with children, teens, adults, and families. I help people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, parenting stress, relationship issues, and big life changes. As a first-gen immigrant and a parent, I know that everyone's story is different and that life can get complicated fast. My style is relaxed, honest, and nonjudgmental. I want therapy to feel like a place where you can be yourself, talk about the hard stuff, and leave with tools that actually fit your life.

I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation, not like you're being analyzed from across the room. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical, blending evidence-based therapies with humor and honesty when it fits. I work with people from all walks of life, helping clients build skills while also making space for the messy parts of being human.

The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and figure out what brought you to therapy. We'll talk about what's working, what's not, and what you hope will be different, without pressure to share more than you're ready for. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, leave with a clearer direction, and know that you don't have to figure everything out alone.
