About Lydia Radke

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I've worked with refugees, people seeking asylum, unhoused folks, people experiencing psychosis, and individuals experiencing the effects of trauma. I've also worked with people in the criminal justice system, both as a social worker and as a Parole and Probation Officer for 8 years. I've also been in private practice for several years, working with individuals as they navigate difficulties in relationships, work, parenting, aging, and life stressors. I've loved every minute working with each person, celebrating their uniqueness and finding a path to a better life.
