With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, working in some of the most challenging clinical settings, I have a diverse skill set to process through even the most complex issues. While I specialize in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy, I realize that the human condition is complex and I do not believe in an “one size fits all” approach to treatment. Rather, I find the most success in tailoring my interventions to align with my client’s individuality and personal goals.

Dr. Brenda Ohta

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California with a doctorate, a master of science in gerontology and healthcare, and certification in yoga therapy. My clinical focus is people living with serious illness, cancer, and the psychological and existential dimensions of a significant medical diagnosis.

I bring my own lived experience with malignant brain cancer to this work. That shapes how I understand fear, uncertainty, and what it means to confront something that threatens not just your life but your sense of who you are. I see clients in private practice and volunteer at local cancer centers.
