About George
George Francis Giles is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, and questions about identity find clearer footing. He works with adults on self-esteem, career decisions, grief, addiction concerns, and intimacy-related issues. He focuses on understanding each person's story and practical next steps.
He uses a person-focused style that centers the client's goals and pace. Sessions are straightforward and conversational. He listens for what matters most and then helps people try small, doable changes.
George draws on cognitive behavioral tools to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. He also uses narrative ideas to help people reframe difficult experiences. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques show up when clients need skills for strong emotions and relationship strain.
His work pays attention to LGBTQ+ experiences, gender questions, and the effects of prejudice and isolation. He also supports people facing aging concerns, hospice and end-of-life matters, and those sorting out non-monogamous relationship dynamics. He helps clients balance practical choices with personal values.
With ten years of practice in California as an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker - he brings experience without assuming one fixed path. Sessions aim to build everyday skills for coping, clearer communication, and more self-acceptance. People leave with steps they can try between sessions.
