I have been in the psychology field for over 20 years. I have an extensive background treating public safety, military, hospital personnel and there families for trauma, work related stressors and family issues. I have treated people who have survived trauma and I am also a trauma survivor. I have worked substance abuse treatment facilities and both inpatient and out patient psychiatric hospitals treating moderate to severe mental heath problems.
I am experienced in conducting diagnostic testing evaluations, fitness for work and pre-employment evaluations. I am a court recognized expert in a few different areas.
Due to my time practicing and vast experience nothing suprises me. I have seen, heard or dealt with most things in the this field. You cannot put a price tag on experience. I have also lived life and have experienced many things myself that clients come into my office wanting help with. I don't know about you but I like getting help from those that have treated the issues in the past or have gone through it themselves versus those that have read about it in books.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Los Alamitos starts with getting clear on the type of care you need. Therapists, counselors, and psychiatrists each offer different kinds of support. If you're looking for talk therapy for concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, or relationship challenges, a licensed therapist (such as an LMFT, LCSW, or psychologist) is a strong starting point. If you may need medication management, consider a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner.
Los Alamitos sits at the border of Orange County and Long Beach, giving you access to a large pool of licensed providers across both regions. When evaluating a therapist, look for someone with experience in the specific area you want to address. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their approach and style before you commit to a session.
