Gwendolyn Gonzalez (LCSW)

Gwendolyn Gonzalez offers clients an opportunity to learn to live in their truth while they understand other individuals’ perspectives. In sessions, clients will understand their triggers and identify healthy coping strategies that match their lifestyles. In my training and experience I have learned to serve as an active listener, understand different perspectives, support individuals with reframes, identify themes/patterns of behavior, and recognize the noble intent to shift one’s perspective and behavior. I have been in the field of social services for the past 16 years. I am trained in different evidence-based and informed models, including multi-systemic therapy, functional family therapy, and mobility mentoring. I have over six years of experience working in the child welfare sector and I am trained in the trauma-focused treatment and domestic violence counseling.
