I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner that is interested in providing quality, compassionate, and comprehensive mental health care services through psychotherapy and psychopharmacology. I come from a strong nursing background, with over 10 years of experience working with clients experiencing changes to their mental and physical health in both outpatient and inpatient settings.

Hello! My name is Pablo Arturo Jimenez, MS, LPC, NCC. I have a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am currently a PhD student in Clinical Psychology. I always carried a passion for helping people through their most difficult times and needs. I developed a life philosophy that if I have the power to help people, then it is my duty to do so. Helping people has allowed me to work with adolescents and adults who struggle with mental health/substance use disabilities or life adjustments. Like my personal beliefs, my counseling approach is tailored to help you; help you heal, grow, problem-solve, explore, reconnect, empower, find a purpose, and much more. I may not find myself in your shoes, but I can walk alongside with you, listen, and understand. By utilizing a holistic approach to therapy with current research-based practices, you will be in touch with your inner self as well as being in touch with the world around you.
I am a licensed psychologist with over fifteen years of experience providing therapy in both Spanish and English. I earned my master’s degree in counseling psychology from Indiana University and my doctorate in counseling psychology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. My doctoral program emphasized multicultural competence and using research to inform practice. Therefore, I use an evidence-based, cultural and trauma-informed approach in therapy. I have worked with Veterans, women and men diagnosed with HIV/AIDS, women diagnosed with breast cancer, and individuals experiencing substance abuse, depression, anxiety, and relationship difficulties. I am licensed in the states of Texas and Iowa.
I am a Licensed Psychologist in Texas and a Nationally Certified School Psychologist who specializes in treating children, adolescents, and adults with social-emotional, behavioral, and educational needs. I received my Ph.D. in School Psychology from New York University in 2008 and completed an APA-approved clinical psychology internship at the Devereux Foundation in Pennsylvania. I have received training in both private and public school settings, outpatient settings, hospitals, and in specialized educational programs for children and adolescents with emotional, behavioral, and developmental needs. I participated in a Family and Multicultural Therapy program for two years at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City where I received supervised family therapy and multicultural competency-based training. In addition to my clinical work, I am an Assistant Professor in the School Psychology Program at Texas State University. My research seeks to understand and promote diversity and inclusion in educational settings. I am particularly interested in studying the development of and consequences associated with children’s social (e.g., gender stereotypes) and academic (e.g., growth mindset) cognitions. My research also involves developing and evaluating interventions to promote positive social and academic outcomes.
My journey to becoming a psychiatric mental health provider originated from the need to provide psychiatric mental health services to all persons. I worked in an inpatient psychiatric setting for five years and decided to advance my career by obtaining my master’s degree in nursing - psychiatry. This advancement has allowed me to help others with their mental health journey. Do you need help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, psychosis, and mania? Reach out today!

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Pasadena
Finding OCD therapists in Pasadena starts with looking for the right training, not just a general specialty label. Exposure and Response Prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. If you’re seeking support for intrusive thoughts, compulsions, obsessions, avoidance, or related anxiety, review therapist bios for direct experience with OCD and ERP. An obsession therapist or OCD-focused therapist may also list approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or anxiety-focused care.
Pasadena is a smaller local market, so your best fit may be nearby, virtual, or a mix of both. Virtual appointments can expand your options beyond therapists with offices close to home, while in-person care may fit better if you prefer a set location for sessions. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their work with OCD. A bio that names ERP training or structured OCD care gives you more useful information than one that only lists OCD as an area of familiarity.
Therapy in Pasadena can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review their bios, check whether they accept your plan, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. From there, you can choose a therapist who matches your needs, schedule, and coverage.
