It is often not easy to seek support, however you're already showing a tremendous amount of courage by considering therapy. I am a certified CBT therapist specializing in depression, anxiety, OCD, emotion regulation challenges, and life transitional issues. I believe individuals have unique needs, and I bring both my experience and collaborative skills into treatment. I am dedicated to and extremely passionate about assisting people to develop more meaning, success, and pleasure in their life. By working collaboratively we can recognize challenges, identify treatment goals, and develop skills to improve the quality of your life.
I have over 10 years experience helping people overcome a wide range of challenges to achieve their goals. I received training at the Cedars-Sinai Outpatient Psychiatry department, worked at a comprehensive DBT program, became certified in Interpersonal Psychotherapy, and certified in CBT as a Diplomate with the Academy of Cognitive & Behavioral Therapies.
I look forward to working together to develop meaningful changes in your life. I offer evenings appointments on weekdays. Prior to scheduling an appointment, we will have an initial 15 minute consultation over the phone to get a better sense of the issues you need assistance with and determine if we are a good fit or if a referral would be more appropriate.
Call or Ben Schwartzman now for a free 15 minute consultation - (310) 943-0649
