Welcome from Dr. Christine E. Dickson
Welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist [CA Lic.# PSY20050], National Provider ID: [1275757163] with a Dual PhD in Clinical and Industrial-Organizational Psychology. I am recognized by Wikipedia as a 21st Century American Psychologist. For over 25 years, I’ve helped individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges with evidence-based, compassionate care. I specialize in anxiety, trauma recovery, burnout, ADHD, and substance misuse offering therapy and psychological testing throughout California via secure telehealth. In addition, I have advanced postdoctoral training in personality disorders, self-injury, and suicidality. My approach integrates mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with practical strategies for lasting change. Whether you’re a high-achieving professional managing stress, a parent seeking support for your child, or someone ready to build resilience and clarity, I’m here to help you.Learn more about my approach, practice, and theoretical orientation and please follow my Blog for self-help advice.
Testimonials for Dr. Christine E. Dickson
""I value every minute of our sessions. It was just my best luck in a long time when you took me as a client. My expectation was that you'd help me survive the last few months with minimal damage. I not only survived, I am happier and healthier now than I can remember. I would not have got here alone or with any therapist I've seen before.""You are brilliant. Thank you for being in my life."
“You've done more for me in 2 sessions than my other therapist did in 1 year."
"I really like how you are able to pivot from practical and tactical to going deep and understanding the psychology behind behaviors."
