About Kianna

Kianna Romero is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with three years of experience in California. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, stress, and low self-esteem. Kianna speaks English and Spanish and offers care that pays attention to each person's background and life circumstances.

She focuses on practical steps that help people cope with day-to-day challenges. Sessions include talking through what feels most pressing, learning skills to manage strong emotions, and finding ways to improve communication. Kianna also supports people dealing with chronic illness, cancer, caregiving, and end-of-life concerns.

Her work pays attention to identity and culture. She brings sensitivity to LGBTQ+ experiences, people of color, and different relationship structures. She also works with concerns related to postpartum adjustment, body image, and gender dysphoria.

Kianna often helps people handle life transitions such as divorce, blended family dynamics, immigration-related stress, and aging or geriatric issues. She addresses attachment and control issues, coping after disasters, and relationship problems like infidelity and communication breakdowns.

Her style is collaborative and person-centered. Kianna aims to help clients build resilience, increase self-understanding, and strengthen relationships by focusing on clear goals and practical strategies. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Kianna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and understanding patterns. One approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Another approach centers on processing difficult experiences and building coping skills for trauma, grief, and long-term stress.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adjust methods over time based on what helps. Clients and the therapist work together to choose techniques that fit the person’s needs and day-to-day life.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some people find phone or video sessions let them continue care during medical appointments, caregiving responsibilities, or work breaks. Ask about available session lengths and formats when arranging the first appointment.
