About Edgar
Edgar Dario Rondon is a California licensed clinical social worker, LCSW, with eight years of professional experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ related concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. He works in both English and Spanish.
Edgar helps people speak openly about what feels overwhelming. Sessions are a place to name difficult feelings, notice patterns, and try practical steps forward. He aims to reduce the sting of panic attacks, social anxiety, and the weight of grief by supporting clear, doable next steps.
He also works with issues around emptiness, sexuality, HIV/AIDS, prejudice and discrimination, seasonal affective disorder, and self-love. Edgar pays attention to how life changes - like a shift in health, work, or relationships - can leave someone unsure what comes next. He helps people sort priorities and test small changes that fit daily life.
In practice he invites direct conversation about events and feelings. He focuses on what people can do between sessions as well as during them. That may include short experiments, new routines, or ways to approach difficult memories in smaller pieces.
People who are feeling stuck or questioning purpose often come for practical support and clearer steps. Edgar works with each person to decide on the immediate goals and the pace of work, and he reviews progress as therapy continues.
How Edgar Uses Evidence-Based Techniques Online
Edgar draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anxiety, trauma, and questions about life purpose. One common approach focuses on skills for managing anxiety and panic - teaching breathing, grounding, and step-by-step exposure to feared situations to reduce avoidance and build confidence. Another approach works with difficult memories and trauma by breaking problems into smaller, manageable pieces and developing coping strategies to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Edgar treats choosing methods as a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust methods as progress and preferences become clearer.
Practical benefits of working online include fitting sessions into a busy week and removing travel time so more consistent check-ins are possible. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm current online options before booking. Many people find that online sessions make it easier to schedule therapy around work, appointments, or caregiving, and they can allow for shorter check-ins or flexible timing when needed.
