About Avery
I have always been dedicated to helping diverse communities, having volunteered at several non profit agencies. Over the years, I have spent her time working in community centers as a mentor and doing community outreach through a Oakland non profit. This has inspired me to make a change in as many lives as possible. I hope to help you find a sense of belonging and the tools to achieve their dreams. I achieved my Bachelors of Science in Human Services with a focus on Counseling at Northeastern University, located in Boston, Massachusetts. My Masters in Social Work followed at Simmons College. I was raised in Oakland, where a sense of community is very important and sparked my desire to work in similar diverse communities. I come from a loving family that taught me to embrace people of all walks of life. I have brought those ideals into how I practice therapy. I often use a multicultural approach in therapy as well as cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and narrative therapy. I specialize in the following areas, if you have a question please reach out about other issues: • Anxiety • Bipolar & Depressive & Other Mood Disturbances • Psychosis ( including auditory/ visual hallucinations) • Adjustment Issues • Trauma & Stress Related Concerns • Substance Use • Attention Deficit/ Hyperactivity • Anger/ Control Concerns • Problems related to body images • Attachement Issues Read more Show less
