Aminah Ofumbi
ACSW
✦ Supervised by
Angel Herrera
I’m a clinical social worker based in LA. I come from a family of community advocates who instilled in me a desire to support people during their most vulnerable moments. After years as a social worker and research psychologist, I developed a deep appreciation for identifying evidence-based practices that align with clients’ needs. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I provide individual therapy using humanistic, evidence-based, and culturally responsive approaches.
