Therapy in Westlake Village

Are you feeling frustrated, stagnant, and lacking motivation in your academic or professional pursuits? Are you feeling an overwhelming need or pressure to complete many tasks, but without a clear understanding of which actions will yield the greatest return on your efforts?

Is not knowing what to focus on or where to put your limited energy leading to disconnected efforts and stifling your forward momentum? Do you find yourself increasingly unable to connect with others in an impactful and enjoyable way?

Psychological struggles caused by anxiety, depression, learning disorders, and neurodevelopmental disorders (such as Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder) can cause impairment in academic, career, social, and other important areas of functioning. These struggles can keep you from accomplishing everything you are capable of accomplishing and can keep you from becoming everything you are capable of becoming in life.

Our therapeutic approach offers guidance and support to help you find clarity amidst the chaos. We will work together to identify your strengths, pinpoint meaningful goals, and develop strategies to prioritize and focus your efforts. Through our tailored interventions, you will gain the tools needed to regain momentum, boost motivation, and reconnect with others on a deeper and more impactful level.

We’re here to help you create a roadmap to feeling confident, empowered, and excited.

INDEPENDENT EDUCATIONAL EVALUATIONS

An Independent Educational Evaluation (IEE) is a psychoeducational evaluation obtained by the parents or guardians of a student who has previously received a school based evaluation to determine their eligibility to receive special education supports and related services. The purpose of an IEE is to provide a comprehensive assessment conducted by an external professional who is not affiliated with the educational institution of their child in order to guide educational decision making and ensure that the student receives appropriate supports and services in the educational setting. Parents have the legal right to request an IEE at public expense.

Dr. Guenther has been instrumental in helping me enhance my self-awareness, adaptability, and versatility. 

I now see multiple paths ahead, and I'm experiencing a positive momentum in my life.

I have been impressed by both [my daughter's] newfound courage and her newfound agility in navigating the challenges of high school and applying to colleges.

After seeing six other therapists, she is the first one who truly gets it. We deeply appreciate her intelligence and intuition in guiding us through this journey.
