Tyler Arguello (he/él/they/elle)

Ph.D., DCSW, LCSW, ACSW, MSW
Accepting Clients

For over 30 years, I am a psychotherapist specializing in LGBTQIA+ affirmative care, trauma, HIV, and mental health equity.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Sacramento, CA

About My Clients

I work with people living with chronic health and mental health conditions, with those struggling with their identity and making meaning in life, and with adults having un/expected challenges in relationships, work, and beyond.

My Background and Approach

My services range from short-term problem solving and education, to supportive behavior change, to more in-depth psychotherapy. Also, I provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). I employ a critical stance, meaning I see our individual existences in active relationship with our environment, communities, histories, cultures, and society. Please see my practice website for more detailed information: www.drtylerarguello.com.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

In addition to private practice, I hold a Ph.D. in Social Welfare and several synergizing positions. I am a Professor of Social Work . I consult with license-seeking clinicians and community and state organizations, provide trainings and workshops, teach and mentor graduate students, do public speaking and invited talks, and I conduct and publish critical health research. Prior to private practice, I have worked in both in- & out-patient medical/psychiatric settings as well as community-based organizations, all of which focused on trauma, mental health, and chronic health conditions including HIV/AIDS. Parallel, it is important to know that I am not a robot. I am Queer, non-binary, gay, White, and temporarily-able bodied. I am an engaged citizen committed to social justice, health equity, and community wellbeing. I am also domestically partnered in a bilingual, interethnic, and transcultural relationship, and I am a coparent for two children.
