About Jose
Jose Campos is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 10 years of experience. He works with adults who face stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, and trauma and abuse, including concerns around guilt and shame.
He focuses on the whole person rather than just symptoms. Sessions are collaborative - he helps clients set goals and figure out practical steps toward them. He also explains different mental health conditions and how they relate to everyday life so people can make informed decisions about their goals.
Jose uses straightforward approaches that look at thoughts, stories, and trauma responses. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. He uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past harms continue to affect daily life.
In the room he asks what is working and what is not. He encourages questions and adapts sessions to each person's needs. He notes fatherhood, first responder experiences, military service, attachment and abandonment concerns among the issues he often addresses.
Sessions also address specific problems such as seasonal mood shifts, social anxiety, self-harm risk, sexual assault and prejudice-related stress. He aims to help clients understand their patterns and choose concrete steps forward, rather than relying on jargon or vague plans.
Approaches used in remote sessions
Jose uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors that can change how they feel. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.He also uses Narrative Therapy to look at the stories people tell about themselves and to find alternative, more helpful ways of understanding past events. Narrative work can be useful when shame, guilt, or identity questions are central.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means discussing what feels practical and adjusting methods over time so sessions stay relevant.
