My name is Gloria Sanchez and I am a bilingual Licensed Social Worker.  I am committed to providing support to people living with challenges.  I have experience working with adults and teenagers struggling to overcome addiction to alcohol, living with a substance-use disorder, depression and anxiety, history of sexual abuse, and other trauma along with life stressors.  I am passionate in working with my clients to build a rapport, create a sense of safety and trust while helping them in their daily lives.  It is my priority to help my clients find balance and equilibrium in order to thrive and flourish in their lives.  I work with each client to assist them to identify and work towards their goals, shed light on their fears to help them live their best lives.  As a therapist, I bring kindness, compassion, a sense of open-mindedness and open-heartedness to my interactions with each client.  Since I am bilingual, I am comfortable holding a session in either English or Spanish.
