I am the Clinical Director of the "Leonard DeFilippo Project," an Flexible Assertive Community Treatment program supporting individuals with severe psychiatric illnesses, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, who have not benefited from traditional 1-time a week treatment-as-usual. Our approach follows the relational "recovery model," focusing on reaching remission rather than symptom management, which is more common in Nevada. Additionally, we offer the "Midnight Hour Light" program, an after-hours therapy service designed to assist those whose symptoms worsen at night when the distractions of the day are no longer present.
I specialize in cases where neurodevelopmental disorders, such as ADHD and Autism diagnosed before age 12, act as biological predispositions for treatment-resistant schizophrenia. While this is my focus, I also have experience treating a wide range of mental conditions. I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology with extensive expertise in diverse conditions.
I see 105 clients per week. I work 18 hours a day 7 days a week, so apologize that it may take longer for me to get back to you. But, please feel free to reach out if you need any assistance. Our programs are all monitored by an independent researcher at a major private university, to ensure quality assurance.

Groups
Asian American and Mixed Race-AA identity group.
According to the census, only 787 Asian Americans reside in Pahrump, NV, and due to this being a rural neighborhood, a considerable amount of those individuals of Asian descent are mixed race (Black-Asian, White-Asian, Polynesian-Asian). This group was started due to a needs assessment conducted in 2020, which found that Asian and Mixed-Asian individuals in Nye County were highly likely to experience upsetting events (eg rejection, mocking, hate speech) from peers at school and work. This group allows an opportunity for your voices and lived experiences to be heard. (this group costs $0).
