Richelle Rojas-Basuil, LCSW

Richelle Rojas-Basuil is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings three years of direct therapy experience to her work. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. Richelle aims to meet clients where they are and learn their hopes for therapy.

Richelle has earlier experience working with adolescents in school settings and in crisis intervention. That background informs how she supports people dealing with trauma, social anxiety, and mood challenges. She uses a steady, nonjudgmental approach when talking through difficult moments.

In sessions she draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s priorities and Narrative Therapy to help people rethink their stories. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and Motivational Interviewing to strengthen personal goals and commitment to change.

She pays attention to caregiver issues and the stresses that come with supporting others, and she addresses attachment concerns, abandonment worries, and body image struggles when they are part of someone’s story. Richelle also works with self-harm, post-traumatic stress, self-esteem, and social phobia concerns.

Richelle practices in California and provides therapy in English. She encourages a collaborative pace and supports people as they try different strategies to reach their goals.

How Richelle’s approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person in the room. It helps when someone needs a space to reflect, make sense of feelings, and set their own goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify patterns of thinking and behavior that get in the way. It’s useful for anxiety, low mood, and when people want practical steps to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Richelle collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the plan as progress and challenges appear.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports continuing work after a change in routine or location, while keeping the focus on practical strategies and the client’s goals.
