Darlene Trujillo (any/all pronouns), LCSW (New York and California), DSW

Staff Psychotherapist; BIPOC Focus

Social justice is the root of my passion for social work. Being a first generation college student informs my understanding of the unique season of life that college can be, with all of its bright and dark moments. I deeply care about supporting students of all identities in their unique experiences. I incorporate Critical Race Studies and Tribal Crit in my work as a therapist. I have a warm personality and believe that authenticity and humor, when appropriate, can be important parts of the healing process. In other words, bring your whole self!
