Arturo Vargas (LCSW)

Hi, my name is Arturo Vargas. I have a passion for helping those in need. My experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW 27705) has allowed me the opportunity to work with children, youth and adults suffering from trauma and other life challenges such as depression, anxiety or conflict with important relationships. I use a client-centered perspective that is integrative, collaborative, and recovery-based (i.e., incorporates client’s strengths as opposed to solely focusing on negatives or pathology). This provides a safe space for clients to feel heard, understood, and respected. I use strategies for proven techniques such as Person-Center Therapy, Solution Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I support clients in building positive communication, fostering meaningful relationships, practicing appropriate social skills, utilizing healthy coping strategies, and to establish and maintain healthy boundaries within a culturally sensitive approach in order to generate lasting interpersonal change. I am bilingual and bicultural. I support BIPOC and the LGTBQ&Q community. I work to ensure that our sessions will be tailored to your needs and goals. I’m available for online therapy sessions with individuals anywhere in the state of California. I look forward to meeting you and working toward improving your wellbeing.
