Cheri Atkinson

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, with over 40 years of professional work experience. I have experience in working with clients who are experiencing depression, stress and anxiety, issues of self confifence, and self esteem, relationship issues, grief and loss, life transitions, and chronic medical conditions. I have experience working with children, and adults, who are dealing with disabilities, chronic illness, as well as medical, physical and emotional changes, following accidents, and life changing events. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment, and I work to help my clients, develop effective emotional coping skills, to deal with the challenges, that they are experiencing in their lives. My therapeutic approach is geared to the needs of my clients. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life, and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in this journey.
