My Approach to Helping
Hi, my name is Cecelia Maier, born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 25 years of experience, licensed through KY. I work with couples, individuals, LGBTQ and adolescents. My approach to therapy is to keep it simple and interesting, treating each Client with respect and dignity.
My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of the Client. I frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) because it has been proven to be the most effective treatment for a multitude of mental health issues. I also use eclectic therapy, which is a mixture of many therapies mixed together. This, along with CBT, has helped my Clientele achieve success in relationships, work place and their daily lives. My recipe is: Half CBT & Eclectic Therapy and a "dash" of Humor = a happy and emotionally healthy person!
I have found that my style and approach is a good fit for young adults, LGBTQ through senior citizens who are dealing with the challenges of a changing world, to include war, disease and a poor economy. This causes anxiety, depression, stress, anger, cutting and eating disorders, and suicidal ideation. I guide my Clients by showing them what tools they can choose to make their lives better, healthier and more manageable.
