Meet our Clinicians
Licensed and supervised clinicians, psychologists, therapists, and specialists, trained across a range of evidence-based approaches and specialties, all practicing under one roof in Westlake Village.
At Lifespan, every clinician is either licensed or actively supervised by a licensed psychologist, and every hire is made against the same standards: deep specialty training, genuine clinical curiosity, and the ability to work collaboratively. Our team spans a range of training backgrounds including doctoral-level clinical psychologists, licensed clinical social workers, licensed marriage and family therapists, and licensed professional clinical counselors, and holds specialty expertise in areas including anxiety disorders, OCD, mood disorders, PTSD and complex trauma, ADHD, learning differences, autism spectrum disorders, child and adolescent development, couples and relationship therapy, grief and bereavement, and neuropsychological and psychoeducational assessment. We serve clients from early childhood through late adulthood, and we deliberately maintain a practice culture in which consultation, peer learning, and clinical humility are the norm rather than the exception.

Our team is led by our founders, supported by senior licensed psychologists, and rounded out by associate clinicians who practice under direct clinical supervision.
