About Joanna Amenero, Lcsw

Mi nombre es Joanna y soy psicoterapeuta licenciada en trabajo social. Recibí mi educación en las universidades de UCLA y USC. He trabajado con todas las edades, en diferentes capacidades en español e inglés. I've held roles in many spaces within the field in both micro and macro capacities. I have been in schools, foster care, adoptions, military bases, hospitals, non-profits, private practices, community clinics, family resource centers, inpatient, outpatient programs and the substance abuse world. This allowed me to work with folks from all walks of life.In treatment I promote the importance of radical self-care and how this is what leads to emotional, mental, sexual and physical health. My specialty is working with survivors of trauma.I help individuals navigate ancestral healing, generational and inter-generational trauma as well as other conditions that affect our mood, thoughts, and behavior. In therapy, I use a holistic and alternative approach that is sex-positive and inclusive of the LGBT+ and first-gen/ immigrant/ Spanish speaking community. I tailor treatment to each individual and offer a safe environment where I listen without judging you, motivate and engage you.​ As a healer I bring years of experience, good energy, and unique interventions with a charismatic personality.After years in the field, I decided to open my practice in order to fulfill my passion and have been fortunate for its rapid growth into what is now a group private practice for adults in CA offering the following:-Psychedelic integration-Animal assisted therapy-Sex/ kink positive-LGBT+ affirming-Trauma informed care*Safe approach by BIPOC clinicians for other minorities𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐈 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐑: Therapy, Coaching, Clinical Supervision, Consultations and more.Visit: www.condorcenter.comEmail 📧: info@condorcenter.comIG & TikTok: @condor.centerPeace & Love from a Peruvian Warrior Joanna Amenero, MSW, LCSW, LPHA, RADT-C #94459
