About Us
Effectiveness
The therapists at Psychotherapy Services have many years in direct practice experience. The ideal client to receive services is the one willing to effect change into their current situation. Often times clients have gone to other practitioners, but are yet to find the right fit and level of understanding they need. In this practice we take the approach of collaborating and starting "where the client is" in an effort to adequately help and not merely make the client feel better
Experience

We accept different insurance plans, including Medi-Cal managed care plans and as part of our ethical standards and commitment to helping others We can offer pro-bono services.
