I am also a member of the American Psychological Association, the California Psychological Association, San Fernando Valley Psychological Association, and I am on the Board of Directors of the Los Angeles County Psychological Association. As a psychologist, one of the most important services that I provide is therapy, which objectively looks at behaviors, feelings, and thoughts in different situations - and helps develop solutions to deal with those situations. Therapy is a collaborative effort, where I may work with you to identify goals and what you want to happen. According to a 1996 survey in Consumer Reports, nine out of ten people who sought therapy said that it helped them. The model of therapy I use at the Woodbury University Counseling Center is based on a short-term cognitive model and usually lasts between four and eight sessions.
All services are confidential.
The Counseling Center also offers several tests in conjunction with the Career Center. If you are feeling like changing majors or are having concerns over the choice of career, you may take tests to help clarify your interests and give you new options. After taking one of the tests, I will discuss the results with you. If you are wondering if you may benefit from talking to a psychologist, stop by the Counseling Center on the first floor of Cabrini Hall or call 818.767.0888, extension 237, and make an appointment.
