Colleen Wong, LCSW

Colleen Wong is a licensed clinical social worker in California who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. She works with people who are trying to regain motivation, build confidence, or manage the effects of trauma and relationship strain. Colleen emphasizes a respectful, person-focused approach. She sees clients as the experts in their own lives and supports them as they take steps toward change.

Her style centers on listening and collaboration. Sessions focus on identifying practical steps a person can try between meetings. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns, and on mindfulness practices to help with emotional regulation and present-moment awareness. Motivational interviewing is used to clarify goals and strengthen commitment to change.

Colleen has three years of professional experience as a California LCSW. That background includes work helping people cope with major life changes, chronic health challenges, caregiver stress, and end-of-life concerns. She also supports people dealing with isolation, social anxiety, and issues around attachment.

People who see Colleen can expect straightforward conversations that prioritize their goals. She helps break down problems into manageable steps and checks in on progress. Her aim is to empower each person to use their existing strengths while trying new strategies.
