Therapists in Monrovia, CA

As a clinical psychologist , I work with clients to increase insight about reasons for distress and dysfunction; formulate predictions about desired goals and pitfalls to avoid; and plan/apply realistic, yet appropriately-challenging steps to achieve set goals. Thanks to APA-accredited doctoral training and years of experience, I offer a range of empirically supported therapeutic tools customized around my client's unique cultural identities and specific needs, and influenced by C(B)T, DBT, ACT, Dynamic, Interpersonal, and other models of therapy.
