My main philosophy when providing care for clients is creating a safe space where the client can feel comfortable opening up and sharing which is an imperative aspect of the relationship-building phase of therapy. I have a relaxed conversational style which often helps with clients who may be apprehensive or nervous. I value my clients’ voices and view the therapeutic relationship as a partnership. We will work together to overcome obstacles and challenges and celebrate successes.

My areas of expertise include: depression, anxiety, adjustment/relational issues, self-esteem, perfectionism, and trauma. Treatment is tailored to each individual person. A holistic therapy approach is utilized, which is the combination of contemporary and alternative treatments with evidence-based practices to assist a person in achieving balance in mind, body, and energy. A deeper understanding of the whole self can lead to increased self-awareness, self-esteem, self-acceptance, and emotional/physical well-being.

As a previously practicing educational psychologist in an alternative school setting, I often encountered students who moved through the public school systems without the support they needed to learn basic foundational skills. Creating a lack of understanding of how they learn; causing low self-esteem and low academic and social functioning. Additionally, these academic difficulties often bring about behavior challenges in school and in the home setting, as students feel incapable of learning to their full potential. These students often require assessment to further determine appropriate intervention for academic success.

A little bit of stress is a good thing. It gets us out of bed in the morning and motivates us to work towards our goals. But too little or too much stress are problems that interfere with our ability to be the best possible versions of ourselves and can prevent our minds from being at ease to deal with life’s daily tasks or pursuing opportunities. Often too much stress can lead to anxiety and depression. Through CBT and other modalities, we will discuss your thoughts and emotions as well as ways to help your motivation and any barrier that may be getting in the way of leading the life you would like.

I view therapy as a very human process, as well as a very sacred one. While I am theoretically grounded in narrative and postmodern practices, I believe in using an integrated approach including Solution-Focused therapy, Positive Psychology, Motivational Interviewing, Existential-Humanistic Therapy, Family Systems, client-centered therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe that positive outcomes stem from working collaboratively with clients to build trusting relationships while attending to every person’s unique needs.

I'm Chloe Ragusa, an LCSW based in SoCal. I am an eclectic therapist and use techniques from many different schools of thought to provide care tailored to each of my client's needs. I specialize in working with the LGBTQIA+ community and am proud to be part of it. I use an eclectic approach to therapy. Each person is a unique and complex blend of emotions and experiences, and I believe the techniques I use should be fitted to the person rather than taking a "one size fits all" approach. I like to let my client set the tone, and weave technique into our session so that the focus is on the person and not the treatment type.
