I am Dr. Cristy Lopez is a clinical psychologist who and I can help:
Has life not turned out the way you thought it would? Unsatisfied or unhappy with your work, home, or relationships? Do you find yourself engaging in the same unhealthy patterns (e.g., unsuccessful relationships, excessive eating, spending, working, worrying)? Feeling helpless, hopeless, confused, or overwhelmed? Life doesn’t have to be this way. You do deserve better! I am a licensed clinical psychologist who works with you to help you achieve a more satisfied, productive, and successful life. I will help you explore your problems in a comprehensive and holistic manner while simultaneously helping you work toward solutions you can begin implementing today.
I work with individual adults, couples, groups, children, adolescents, and families experiencing a variety of problems. I utilize a variety of treatments that have demonstrated positive outcomes. Clients are given home works and exercises to work on in between sessions. I also provide coaching for those interested in personal and professional growth leading to a more satisfied and fulfilling state of being. I conduct workshops and group therapy on issues such as couples communication and bonding, financial health, and personal and professional growth.
My educational background includes: B.A. in Psychology from the University of California-Berkeley; M.A. and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Missouri-Columbia; clinical internship at the University of Illinois-Chicago; post-doctoral fellowship at ASU; clinical residency at a local psychology clinic; as well continuing education. I have appeared on the Dr. Phil show as a treating psychologist as well as on local news/information programs. I also have been quoted in several newspapers and national magazines. I have published in both scholarly journals and books pertaining to mental health and treatment.
If you don’t work toward change, things usually will remain the same and often do become worse. Things can be better. E-mail me to get started.
