Nydia Collins, LCSW

Nydia Collins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 22 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. As an LCSW she holds a professional license to provide clinical social work services and therapeutic care. She blends a warm, transparent approach with a broad set of therapeutic skills so care can be tailored to each person’s needs and goals.

Nydia draws from a range of methods in her practice, including motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based techniques. She is also working toward certification in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), expanding the options she can offer people coping with past trauma and post-traumatic stress. Her additional clinical interests include attachment concerns, communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, social anxiety, and issues that commonly affect women.

Fluent in English and Spanish and based in California, she treats each person with respect and collaborative intention, adapting interventions to fit the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. She views her role as a partner in the work of growth and change and appreciates the privilege of supporting people as they pursue greater resilience and self-compassion.
