Find A Psychologist in Lancaster, CA.

I've been a licensed psychologist for 20 years, working with a variety of clients from different backgrounds and lifestyles. I have performed psychological testing with children, adolescents, and adults, and psychotherapy and psychoeducation in groups, families, individuals and couples. Throughout the years, I have found what I enjoy doing best: helping people resolve trauma and grief, and repairing unhealthy relationships. My education had prepared me for many different roles, but I find that private practice psychotherapy is ideal for me. I love providing therapy to individual teens and adults, and couples in traditional and nontraditional relationships (including same-sex couples and polyamorous relationships). I would love to help you heal from the past.

Taking this step towards seeking help is a courageous and kind choice. And I know how challenging this can be. I have engaged in my own journey to unpack and release unhelpful beliefs, limitations, and burdens that weren’t mine to carry. I changed my career path and became a psychologist because this work has been so transformative for me. It is my passion to help you on this journey. I am a pre-licensed counseling psychologist this means I have completed doctoral coursework and am working towards gaining licensure in my state. I received my degree from Northwest University in Kirkland, WA. I have seven years of experience working with clients and am supervised by licensed psychologist Maya Weir.
