Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in West Covina, CA

Hello, I'm Dr. Lori! Thank you for trusting in me to join in on your journey. It takes courage to start the process of therapy, and you are already taking the first step. I look forward to being your ally and to offer a warm and safe place free of judgement.

I work with adults, children, teens, couples, and families. I have 15 years experience. I have a BA in Psychology from UCLA, a MA in Clinical Psychology with an Emphasis on Marriage & Family Therapy from Pepperdine University, and a Psy.D in Marriage & Family Therapy from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology.

I look forward to meeting you!

There are some things in life that are too hard to face alone. If you or a loved one have experienced trauma, relationship struggles, stresses related to parenting or taking care of an aging parent, grief at the loss of a beloved member of your life, anxiety, depression, survivor or witness to abuse, or seeking tools for living with wellness. Please come and be welcome in a healing space.

I believe healing begins with meaningful connection. My work with cancer patients and their families has deeply shaped my understanding of pain, loss, resilience, and the complexities that relationships face during times of crisis. I support adults of all ages in navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, loneliness, grief, and relationship concerns, offering both compassionate guidance and practical, effective tools for growth and healing.

I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, understood, and genuinely supported. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, and I strive to create a space where you can be yourself. People often describe me as easy to talk to, and I believe that compassion—and even a little humor when appropriate—can make the healing process feel more comfortable. We'll work together to build on your strengths and help you create meaningful, lasting change.

I create a warm environment to work collaboratively on achieving your objectives. I've been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 20 years. I specialize in relationships, anxiety, depression, fears/phobias, couples work, creativity, career enhancement among other goals. I have an eclectic treatment modality including psychodynamic, self-psychology, cognitive-behavioral, hypnotherapy and NLP.

I offer a supportive, affirming space where clients can show up authentically. I guide individuals in rediscovering themselves and taking meaningful steps toward a more purposeful and aligned life.

I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a safe, judgment-free space.

I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself, explore what's holding you back, and build the tools to create lasting change.
