John Ghadar, M.S.W., LCSW (136351)

My name is John Ghadar and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My clinical approach is shaped by nearly seven years of experience. My background has given me specialized expertise in supporting people with addiction (substance use, video games, etc.), burnout, and psychosis. I also specialize in grief and loss. My goal is to provide evidence-based, trauma-informed care that works with your unique needs.

I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Pitzer College. There, I helped early adolescents cope with obstacles such as developmental disabilities, low socioeconomic status, and familial challenges in both one-on-one and in group settings. I then earned my Master of Social Work degree from the University of Southern California. I have since received ongoing training and supervision in hospital and community behavioral health settings.
