My name is Monica Turner and I'm currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in the Los Angeles, California and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I primarily work with adults and specialize in working with people experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues and prenatal/pregnancy/postpartum concerns. I utilize different approaches depending on what is most appropriate for each client and depending on what is most appropriate. I am trained in Holistic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Reality Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Crisis Intervention. My communication style is calm, direct and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking to me about what ever comes up and I pride myself on my ability to listen without judgment. I find that using some humor at times as well can be very effective to dealing with life's challenges. During our first session you can expect to spend a good deal of time discussing what brought you to therapy which will include me asking questions to better understand you as a whole person. The goal is to build rapport and trust and become comfortable with one another. If you think we might be a good fit, I encourage you to reach out today.
