About

My name is Fred Wahlig. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in San Diego, California with 30 years of experience as a Social Worker and Therapist. I graduated with my Masters in Social Work from San Diego state University in 1991.

Prior to obtaining my MSW I worked on a Crisis Line and in a Homeless Youth Shelter. As a Social Worker and Therapist, I have had the opportunity to work with People of , Children and Teens who had experienced physical asexual abuse, Active Duty Naval Personal, Transgender youth in crisis and Adolescent and Teens who were actively suicidal. I'm a Mental Health Specialist with the National Disaster Medical System. As a member of NDMS, I'm periodically activated to provide crisis counseling to First Responders. I feel it takes a great deal of courage to seek help when mental health issues may be impacting your life. I'm an open, caring individual and believe everyone deserves to live a life they desire.
