Azita Azizi, LCSW

Azita Azizi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with nine years of experience supporting people through meaningful life changes. As an LCSW she is a licensed mental health professional trained to assess, diagnose, and provide psychotherapy for a range of concerns. She has worked with individuals facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and other stressors including postpartum depression.

Her therapeutic style blends solution-focused and client-centered work with a strengths-based orientation that draws heavily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This combination emphasizes practical strategies, personal strengths, and the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help clients make manageable changes. Azita applies these methods to issues such as family conflict, coping with life changes, self-esteem, anger, and career concerns.

Azita views therapy as a warm but challenging process that invites self-reflection and honest conversation. She aims to create a supportive, empathetic space where people can feel comfortable and open while working toward their goals. She continues to learn and refine her skills to offer the best possible care to those seeking guidance and growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Azita Azizi integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to support people making change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so individuals feel heard and validated as they explore goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses patterns of thinking and behavior, offering practical tools to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to improve daily functioning.

She also uses Solution-Focused techniques that emphasize concrete, achievable steps and the client’s existing strengths to create momentum toward change. These approaches are often combined to tailor treatment to the individual’s situation, whether addressing parenting concerns, trauma, grief, or career challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Azita works with each person to identify goals, test strategies, and adjust the plan over time so therapy fits their needs, preferences, and pace. Online sessions offer flexibility - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging allow people to access therapy from different locations and at times that suit their schedules, making it easier to maintain continuity and progress.
