Rocio Lozano-Arciniegas, LCSW

Rocio Lozano-Arciniegas is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who brings years of experience helping people navigate major life changes and emotional challenges. She has worked extensively in private practice with individuals facing grief, relationship difficulties, career concerns, anxiety, depression, and the aftereffects of abuse and trauma. Before earning her social work degree, she spent many years supporting the migrant population in North Carolina, which informs her awareness of cultural and immigration-related stressors.

Her approach centers on forming a respectful and supportive therapeutic relationship that meets each person where they are. She emphasizes compassion and sensitivity and avoids stigmatizing labels, tailoring treatment plans to the unique needs of each client. Clinically she draws from psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and client-centered methods to address symptoms and underlying patterns.

As a bilingual clinician who works in English and Spanish, she is comfortable addressing attachment concerns, communication problems, parenting challenges, and adjustment to life transitions. She aims to collaborate with clients to create practical strategies for coping and growth, and she looks forward to meeting potential clients and supporting them through their journeys.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of connecting with others; it helps people explore patterns in close relationships and build more secure bonds. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings - useful for reducing reactivity to stress and improving emotional regulation. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current behavior and relationships, offering insight that can relieve persistent emotional difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Rocio will work together with each client to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adapts treatment plans as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls or phone conversations, and shorter check-ins are possible through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, to access care from different locations, and to maintain continuity of support during transitions or travel.
