Greg

Psychology Assistant

  • My name is Gregory. I am a former Marriage and Family Therapist who has taken on the challenge of becoming a Clinical Psychologist. I earned my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at the University of La Verne. I am currently enrolled at Azusa Pacific University as a doctoral candidate. I have worked with clients across the lifespan and with diverse populations. I am also a former United States Marine who has had the pleasure of providing mental health services to veterans.

    My specialty is with the young adult population, but I have worked across the age groups including older adults (65+) and children/adolescents. I utilize a warm and empathetic approach with my clients. I am a firm believer in the idea that everyone is capable of change. I have also provided therapeutic services to Spanish speaking clients. I mainly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as my treatment approach, but I have also been trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Seeking Safety, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT). My treatment philosophy is based on helping clients find meaning and agency in their lives. I have also gained experience in faith integration for clients who want a more spiritual approach.
