About Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Meet Christine Dougherty LCSW, a Lead Clinical Social Worker who tells us all about their role in Behavioral Health Services providing counseling and therapy for their patients at Vista Community Clinic, also known as the VCC located all over North County San Diego, California. A typical day for Christine includes providing support services to other behavioral health specialists: looking for different resources and getting educational components to stay updated about what’s available within the community. Another aspect of her work is doing initial assessments for prospective patients as well as ongoing therapeutic services for the patients who have already established care through VCC.
