Seeing your child struggle in school can be challenging and it might feel overwhelming on where to start and where to get help. I work with families to answer questions about student challenges and identify learning strengths and areas of need. I provide psycho-educational testing to examine suspected learning disabilities, attention difficulties, social communication and interaction, depression, and anxiety. If your child is struggling in school, I would love to help figure out why and provide recommendations to help them thrive.

I want to acknowledge your courage for taking this first step of prioritizing your mental health. I understand the fear and anxiety of beginning this journey of the unknown as I, too, have experienced the process. So whether this is a small or big step for you, I’m glad you’re here. You may have lived through life’s stressors by having to go on survival mode, causing you to cope in ways that don’t really benefit you in the long term. This can look like isolation, overstepping your boundaries, invalidation of self, or a self-written destructive narrative that fulfills cultural and societal expectations.

Life is not easy. We inevitably experience obstacles that interfere with relationships and ability to take care of our responsibilities. At these times, it can be tremendously valuable to find a safe place to ally in self-exploration with a trusted individual who can offer new perspectives. The right therapeutic relationship built on mutual trust and transparency is powerfully transformative. This takes courage, and I honor your willingness to take this step.

My passion for mental health stems from my recovery story. I fell in love with the people and organizations that helped me. And, when I starting helping others on the path of personal growth, I knew what I was put on this planet to do. So, I got out of the job I hated to pursue a Master's Degree in Social Work at USC. My approach to psychotherapy focuses on learning about the journey my clients have experienced. Followed by a solution-focused orientation that encourages forward progress and goal achievement. I believe that with love, support, and honesty anything is possible.

Hi! My name is Dr. Tristin Engels (PSY29403), and I am a licensed Clinical and Forensic Psychologist. My experience has taught me that the most important aspect of effective therapy is building and maintaining a therapeutic rapport. Without that, treatment success will be negatively impacted. As a clinical forensic psychologist, I have worked with extremely diverse and underserved populations for the majority of my career. This has been invaluable in allowing me exposure and experience working with nearly all mental health conditions, understanding cultural sensitivity and building rapport with the most resistant of clients.

I have a special interest in working with couples and families and in doing Dream Work with my individual clients. Much of the therapeutic work I do is based on the theories of Carl Jung, Joseph Campbell, & James Hillman. However, I do balance my practice using other therapeutic techniques from other theorists as well. It is not so important for me to apply a certain theory or my own beliefs on a client but instead it is my intention to really understand my clients' own personal beliefs and expectations of therapy.

My hope is to pay that forward and support you in reconnecting to your genuine strengths. I believe each person has the key to their own wellness and success.
