AGUSTINA BACIGALUPO BIBB

LCSW-A

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate with over 10 years of experience in the social work field. I have experience providing compassionate support to children, teenagers, and adults. I have also expanded my work to support couples. I have worked in a variety of settings, including domestic violence shelters, crisis centers, and non-profit organizations providing family and individual services. 

 

I was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina (go Messi!). As an immigrant, I understand the complexities of assimilating to a foreign culture while trying to keep our identities. I believe we all need a support system to succeed and overcome the many challenges in life. Therapy can be a way to organize our ideas and understand ourselves better. I am looking forward to being part of your support system.


My methods of treatment are evidence based including, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma-Informed interventions, Cognitive Therapy, and Eco-Systemic Structural Family Therapy.


Hola! Soy trabajadora social clínica con más de 10 años de experiencia en el campo del trabajo social. Tengo experiencia brindando apoyo compasivo a niños, adolescentes y adultos. También he ampliado mi trabajo para apoyar a las parejas y a las familias. He trabajado en una variedad de entornos, incluidos refugios para víctimas de violencia doméstica, centros de crisis y organizaciones sin fines de lucro que brindan servicios familiares e individuales.


Nací y crecí en Buenos Aires, Argentina (¡vamos Messi!). Como inmigrante, entiendo las complejidades de asimilarse a una cultura extranjera mientras tratamos de mantener nuestras identidades. Creo que todos necesitamos un sistema de apoyo para tener éxito y superar los tantos desafíos de la vida. La terapia puede ser una forma de organizar nuestras ideas y comprendernos mejor a nosotros mismos. Espero ser parte de su sistema de apoyo.


Mis métodos de tratamiento se basan en la evidencia, incluidas las entrevistas motivacionales, las intervenciones informadas sobre el trauma, la terapia cognitiva y la terapia familiar estructural ecosistémica.

FOUNDER - MSW, LSCW, CSAC

"Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid of standing still." - Chinese Proverb

Most people seek counseling when they are at their most vulnerable, and it takes bravery to seek support during this time. It is an honor to be trusted to sit beside you as you show your strength and resilience while taking on life’s challenges.

A strong and trusting therapeutic relationship is one of the most important components when working towards healthy change. In my approach to therapy, you are the expert of your life and your experiences. Therefore, you are the best person to direct your journey as we move toward reaching your personal goals. My job is to provide a safe space to process life’s challenges, and also provide new perspectives and tools for you to consider on your road to healing and peace.

My methods of treatment are evidence-based and include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Internal Family Systems. I utilize additional tools such as mindfulness and trauma-informed care to provide a holistic approach to treatment.
