I believe that everyone faces challenges that can feel overwhelming at times. My goal is to provide a supportive and personalized therapeutic environment where you can rediscover your strengths and develop new skills to navigate life's obstacles. Based in San Diego, I offer telehealth services to clients in California, Hawaii, Florida, and Virginia. With over 20 years of experience as a licensed clinical psychologist, I specialize in holistic, evidence-based approaches, including ACT, EMDR, and Somatic Experiencing. Together, we can work toward achieving your mental health goals and enhancing your overall well-being.

I work with clients to foster meaningful change by deeply understanding their unique experiences. Through empathy and evidence-based approaches, I guide you in aligning your actions with your true self, enhancing your relationships, and advancing your career. My goal is to help you build a life that reflects your values and aspirations.

My services include short and long-term psychotherapy for individuals. Please feel free to visit my website at www.svenschild.com for more information. To schedule a free 15 min phone call, please visit drschild.clientsecure.me. I look forward to hearing from you.
