Forensic Psychology Therapists in Anaheim, CA

I've been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for the past 14 years and love what I do. I approach all my clients with empathy and compassion whatever reason they are seeking therapy. I have been trained specifically to work with couples, relationships, and individuals suffering from addiction, substance abuse, anxiety, depression, Bipolar, PTSD, infidelity, and grief.

Welcome to my practice. I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

Hi! My name is Karissa and I'm a Clinical Psychology Intern enrolled in the Doctoral program at the Chicago School. I have experience working with individuals with trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, and other mood disorders. My approach to therapy is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) orientation. However, I recognize that there is no “one size fits all” approach to therapy and understand the importance of tailoring therapy to best fit individual needs. My goal is to provide a supportive therapeutic environment where you can work towards your goals and self-development. I look forward to working with you!

The Avery Centre has experienced and compassionate therapists ready to help children and adults suffering from trauma, grief, loss, and/or PTSD. After a crisis, loss, or trauma, each individual has their own way of grieving, and coping. Sadness, guilt, shock, anger, frustration, rage, and feelings of helplessness may occur. The healing process may begin with the passage of time and the support of loved ones; however, professional help may be needed for support during the initial shock of the situation and later on while experiencing different stages of the grief cycle. The Avery Centre was created to provide clients with support, guidance, understanding, and empathy during these most difficult times.

Are you navigating life's unexpected twists and turns? Feeling overwhelmed by past experiences that continue to affect your present? I provide guidance on how to navigate life's transitions and traumas. I also understand social media's impact on mental health, including feelings of isolation and loneliness.

I choose to practice trauma-informed care because intention and corrective experiences are important aspects of healing. As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I provide psychotherapy for youth and adults of all ages in individual, couples and family sessions. I value helping clients identify strategies they can apply towards stressors that are impacting their lives in order to experience relief from suffering, develop communication skills, practice healthy coping skills, and improve confidence. I love championing my clients towards their best selves, while contributing encouragement, empathy, and hope for a bright future!

I am a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in health- and neuro-psychology as well as the treament of individuals who struggle with SMI, SUD, and housing instability as well as the impact from chronic health concerns.

The type of therapy I do is called existential and person-centered. I believe in unconditional positive regard and that all people are entitled to respect, care, empathy, and to seek what is in their best interest as a human being. My approach to therapy is that we all have the ability to change and grow if provided with the right tools and insight. Treatment goals assist you in what you want and I am an instrument to assist you in obtaining your goals whatever those may be. Trauma, Addiction, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Issues are my specialty.
