About Zaneta

Zaneta Street is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with 3 years of experience supporting individuals, families, and groups through relational challenges, trauma, grief, identity exploration, and life transitions.

She works with adolescents, teens, adults, and families, with a strong focus on relational dynamics, family of origin patterns, and the development of a healthier relationship with self. Zaneta is especially passionate about supporting women, Black boys and men, and individuals navigating racial trauma, grief, and questions of meaning and purpose.

Her clinical work often centers on helping clients understand how early relational experiences shape present-day patterns, and how healing can occur through both self-reflection and safe, supportive connection with others.

Zaneta is open to working with older adults, although she notes limited prior experience in that area.

A Note from Zaneta Street

“Therapy can definitely trigger experiences of discomfort and pain. However, I gently invite you to think about an experience where fear held you back, and to also reflect on a time that connecting with fear propelled you forward. Give therapy a try, at some point, you may arrive at feeling pleasantly or shockingly surprised!”
