About Damaris Tobar

Damaris Tobar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who brings a bicultural perspective to her therapeutic work in the San Gabriel Valley, California. She supports adults through telehealth and focuses on anxiety, stress, trauma, domestic violence, and substance abuse while centering relationship-building as a key part of the healing process.

Damaris integrates practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with mindfulness practices, trauma-informed care, and elements of Feminist Therapy to help clients feel more grounded and better able to manage their emotions. Her style balances warmth and empathy with honest, direct feedback, and she often uses humor to foster connection. Sessions aim to offer a steady, holding environment where clients can explore challenges and develop coping strategies.

Her clinical approach emphasizes emotional regulation and safety while acknowledging the broader social contexts that shape mental health. She often references the perspective of scholars who highlight how systems of oppression and intersectionality influence well-being, and she brings that awareness into collaborative work with clients.
