Tatiana Daniels, ACSW

My name is Tatiana Starr Daniels, also known as “Estrella,” and I am originally from the bay area. I am a bilingual therapist with Spanish as my second language. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Sociology with a minor in Psychology from CSU, Sacramento and earned my master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from Boston University. I am now an associate therapist with experience serving the following populations: seniors, children (K-12), transitional aged youth 18-24, women, men, people of color, marginalized populations, and people in all stages of addiction recovery.

 

I have a passion for understanding the brain, helping clients reach their goals, and to become the best version of themselves that they aspire to be. I am able to genuinely engage people from all walks of life whether they are experiencing homelessness or are a CEO of a fortune five hundred company. 

Some strengths that contribute to my therapeutic work with clients are teaching healthy communication skills, utilizing psychoeducation, and taking approaches that are client-centered, trauma-informed, humanistic, and strength-based.

 

I have served clients experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction recovery, familial and relationship conflicts, workplace stress/conflict/discrimination, and people pursuing a work-life balance.

I would like to invite you to a heartfelt healing zone; where you are an expert of YOU. You will learn to cultivate self healing practices and to be an agent of change. This process will assist many in uncovering their true selves while exploring self-identity in a supportive non-judgmental culturally competent therapeutic environment. My hope is for each client to gain a better understanding of the purpose and increase self-awareness. I am a faith-based African American/Black affirming Associate Marriage, Child, and Family clinician with 3000 plus hours providing therapy to children, individuals, couples, and families. I also have 20 years of working experience in several areas under the mental health umbrella. I pride myself on being a hybrid case manager/ clinician.  I am trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT).

Kimberly Vang, Billing & Admin Assistant

I'm new to being a medical biller and admin assistant but am eager to help patients with all their billing and coverage concerns. 

I have a bachelors' degree in Psychology and have been interested in becoming a therapist for the longest time. Even though I'm not working directly with clients, just being able to consult with them and help them from behind the scenes has really inspired me to want to pursue this career path. 

Michelle Oweka, LCS
