What do you want out of your life?

I'm Auriza Ugalino (MSW, LSWAIC).

I'm here to help you live the life you want to live.

The First Step in Your Healing Journey

In a culture that over-values independence, it can be hard to determine when to ask for help.

I would like to congratulate you on visiting my website and recognizing your inner advocate!

I work from a community-focused, social justice lens to

recognize how we fit into the bigger picture, and collaborate

with you on ways to surmount the insurmountable.

Therapy Sessions with a Licensed Clinical Social Worker

For nearly a decade, I've engaged in community-oriented work to build a strong foundation for my practice.

 

In 2023, I graduated with my MSW at the University of Washington (ranked 3rd in the nation for its social work program).

Holistic, Personalized,

Integrated Approach

Therapy is more than just paced breathing and self care... it's what you want to do!

​

As a social worker with experience in multiple backgrounds - including ethnic studies and mental health - I know that our healing does not exist in a vacuum. Together, let's find solutions for your specific problems.
