Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Calabasas, CA

I am a compassionate and dedicated LCSW with a deep passion for helping individuals navigate their unique mental health challenges and achieve lasting personal growth. I believe that every individual and relationship has the capacity for healing and transformation. I am experienced in working with individuals (children, adolescents, and adults) experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, relationship conflicts, low self-esteem, and adjustment issues.

I am a Psychodynamic therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience in offering a deep, insight-oriented approach to healing. My practice is built on the belief that understanding our past is the key to transforming our future. I specialize in helping individuals uncover the underlying patterns and unconscious processes that shape their current lives.

My therapy style is both empathetic and analytical, tailored specifically to your unique history. Together, we will explore the "why" behind your experiences, fostering profound self-awareness and lasting emotional growth in a secure, supportive space. Whether you are navigating trauma, relationship issues, or major life transitions, I am here to help you move toward long-term resolution and authenticity.

As a PMHNP-BC who specializes in autism, complex cases, OCD, personality disorders, PTSD/trauma, schizophrenia/psychosis disorders, and substance use, I've built my practice around understanding that every person's mental health journey is unique—especially when multiple conditions interact or when traditional approaches haven't worked.

I also provide comprehensive treatment for depression, anxiety, panic disorders, mood disorders, and bipolar disorder, always with an understanding that these conditions often overlap and influence each other in complex ways. What I want you to know is this: your experiences are valid, your struggles make sense in the context of your life, and there's no such thing as being "too much" for treatment.

Whether you're masking autistic traits, battling compulsive behaviors, managing intense emotions, processing trauma, questioning reality, or struggling with substances, I meet you exactly where you are without trying to force you into a predetermined mold. My approach combines evidence-based treatments with deep respect for your individual needs and experiences.

You deserve a provider who doesn't see complexity as a problem to solve, but as a roadmap to understanding how to best support your unique path to wellness.

My name is Dr. Lentz and I have been practicing in the mental health field for over 10 years. I strive to help those acquire skills to overcome challenging situations that are tailored to a person's specific need. I am a goal oriented therapist that works diligently to achieve goals that are identified by the individual and myself. Life is full of situations that do not always have clear and definitive answers, which is a process the therapeutic approach I utilize can assist with.

I received a Masters from Sofia University and additional certifications in Psychedelic Integration, Somatic Therapy, and as a yoga teacher.

Historically, I have worked in psychiatric hospitals, community clinics, group homes, and correctional settings.

I have experience working with clients of different ages, identities, races, and diagnosis.

Current focus is on adults dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and existential concerns.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I received my Master Degree from California State University and I've been practicing therapy for over 12 years. I grew up in Italy and moved to the US 42 years ago. I'm a mother and a grandmother and I love to support the community where I lived for 30 years. In my personal life I've experienced losses, single parenthood and the challenge of acculturation. I work with adult men and women struggling with trauma, grief, anxiety, life transitions, and relationships. I'm passionate about helping them live more fulfilling relationships and peaceful life. My practice is guided by my professional experience and education, as well as loving kindness and compassion.
