About Sirribi Atanga

Sirribi Atanga guides people through transitional periods with an emphasis on practical understanding and personal strengths. She recognizes that environments, relationships, and family ties change over time, and that individuals often carry their struggles through those shifts. When someone is navigating a difficult phase, she supports them in making sense of what is happening and in responding constructively.

She affirms each person’s resilience, uniqueness, and inherent worth, and values the choice to begin a therapeutic process. With an approach grounded in cultural humility and sensitivity, she aims to create a welcoming space where concerns can be explored without judgment. Her work centers on identifying goals, leveraging existing strengths, and building skills to move toward healthier functioning.

In practice she adopts a strengths-based orientation, acknowledging and building on the resources a person already has while attending to individual background and life experience. Sirribi holds LICSW and LCSW credentials, which indicate licensure as a clinical social worker, and she brings that clinical training to collaborative, person-centered therapy.
