About Me
about me
Felicia Lepetri, LCSW
I am a licensed clinical social worker and have worked in various health care settings where I gained my experience and knowledge of how chronic illness can alter someone’s life and wellbeing. I gained psycho-oncology experience from the Simms/Mann UCLA Center for Integrative Oncology, where my primary role was providing counseling to those who have been impacted by cancer, including caregivers and loved ones. I have also worked in care facilities and supported those diagnosed with dementia, acted as a Care Manager at the ALS Association and worked in hospice care. I also work with clients who have experienced a divorce/break up, job loss/retirement and struggling with identity and life transitions.
Healing through Shared Grief
A Personal Journey of Empathy and Support
After many years of witnessing my mother navigate her cancer journey and experience her death at a young age, I dedicated my education and career to serve populations who had similar struggles and stressors. I share my personal experience only to encourage and empower others to connect in times of grief and loss. Grief is a shared human experience and I’ve heard too often that people feel their pain and suffering is too much for others to hold. My hope is to normalize and validate your experience, and hold space for you to explore your grief process.
