Find A Psychologist in Inglewood, CA.

Working with a licensed psychologist means working with someone trained, at the doctoral level, to understand not just what you're struggling with but why it persists. I hold a Ph.D. in clinical psychology and practice psychoanalytically, which simply means I pay close attention to the parts of your experience that operate beneath everyday awareness, the patterns you didn't choose and can't quite explain, yet keep running into. Psychic difficulties always have a logic of their own. Rather than managing symptoms on the surface, I work with you to uncover what's actually driving them, because that's what allows not short-lived changes, but deep and lasting relief.

I am a Ph.D. psychologist. My approach to helping people is to use short-term evidenced-based therapeutic techniques for your particular disorder, problem, or issue. I believe in first assessing the problem and then developing an individualized treatment plan to help you resolve it. I use skill-building approaches that are practical and useful and which require active patient participation both in sessions and between sessions.

Psychology defines an understanding of human behavior. The role of a psychologist is to assist individuals of any age, who experience mental health dysfunctions, to enhancing and promoting their individual wellbeing. Through the use of assessment tools, observations and evaluation, I will tailor a treatment plan, monitored appropriately and professionally to the individual needs. The plan will vary in models of therapies and in collaboration with other health professionals if needed. I will primarily diagnose abilities, moods and behavior often related to symptoms from traumatic injuries, depression, anxiety, risky behaviors, addictions and social / interpersonal problems.

I am a psychologist, a consultant, and a researcher. I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist through the California State Board of Psychology (PSY 27951).

A psychologist has the most extensive training in psychology of all the mental health professions. Some people with a Ph.D. are licensed as Marriage and Family Therapists (and I have that license as well) or as Social Workers, not psychologists. As a psychologist, I understand the benefits and limitations of research, and I also bring that to my psychotherapy practice. Psychologists work with the full range of psychological and emotional issues, without limitation, unlike MFTs and LCSWs who have a more limited scope of practice. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU: I’m well trained to help you with whatever issues bring you to me.
