Mrs. Lopez graduated from Pepperdine University Graduate School of Education and Psychology with her master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy. She enjoys working with adolescents, young adults, and families. She believes each person has unique gifts/strengths that they can apply while on their unique healing journey. Mrs. Lopez believes in the importance of the therapeutic relationship, works gently with the client to meet them where they are, and acts as a guide alongside them. Mrs. Lopez takes a humanistic, person-centered approach as she understands the importance of tailoring therapy. Hence, it aligns with the individual’s unique needs rather than taking on a one-size-fits-all therapeutic approach.

Mrs. Lopez employs various techniques to treat these conditions, including narrative therapy, attachment theories, cognitive behavioral therapy, family systems therapy, and mindfulness techniques.
