Bienvenidos, mi nombre es Mari Santos. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I have spent the last 9 years in mental health and have practiced as a therapist for the last 6 years. I graduated from both Simmons University with a Master’s in Social Work and a Bachelor’s in Biological Psychology from CSUSB. I am a first-generation Salvadoran American that loves to laugh, travel and work out. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California.  As a Spanish-speaking clinician, I provide services both in English and Spanish. My priority is to continue to serve marginalized individuals and my community. For over 10 years, I have contributed through volunteering, community mental health work, ‘street medicine’, clinical supervision, and most recently four years as a nephrology social worker. I also support statewide advocacy to reinforce my dedication to equity and cultural representation. My commitment is to continue to tailor my practice to my client’s needs, as there is no universal path to wellness.
