My name is Michael Villanueva, and I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist in California. I have worked as a professor at a university, providing research and clinical services on remote tribal lands, served as a combat clinical psychologist in Afghanistan, and implemented research with computational neuroscientists at UC San Diego on the effects of psychedelics on the human brain. I provide individual talk psychotherapy (including telehealth) and Neurotherapy in my office. I record and analyze my clients’ EEG (i.e., brainwaves), which provides me with a personalized approach to neurofeedback training to address my clients’ symptoms
I implement cognitive-behavioral methods, Jungian dream work, problem-solving skills, and insight-oriented conversation within this neurophysiological framework. Thus, in partnership, we will examine your internal and external assets, assess strengths and deficits, and set short-term goals.
Over the past 25 years, I've worked with clients of all ages, occupations, and nearly all socio-economic statuses. While there is no typical client with whom I work, my most satisfied clients share commonalities: First, despite their levels of depression or anxiety, they felt they could be better. Second, they took our work and practiced.outside the office.
