Psychotherapy the way it should be done

In the year 2024, IFS (Internal Family Systems) is far and away the most cutting-edge form of Psychotherapy.  CBT?  ...old school (though I still rely on it as needed).  You deserve the best, so I encourage you to reach out to Dr Litov at LApsychology.com. For specific trauma, EMDR or Bilateral Stimulation (BLS) is incorporated into treatment as needed.

"I have to say that you're the best damn therapist I've ever had... The few sessions I've had with you have already changed my life for the better!"  J.W.  (unsolicited letter)

Welcome! My goal as your psychologist is to help you feel better, quickly, applying therapeutic methods supported by cutting edge science, in a warm, and caring atmosphere.  I am solution oriented: Most of my clients will not spend years in therapy. Most patients are in treatment for 6 - 12 months.  If you have experienced physical, emotional or sexual abuse, it will take longer.

  • Is it time for you to begin feeling better now?

  • Do you want to be able to live the life you want?

  • Do you want the power to move directly towards your life goals?

 

You can dramatically improve your mood, living a low-stress life- the kind you have always wanted.

How I Work​

Dr. Litov is...
Caring, considerate.  Respectful, discreet, attentive.
Direct, to the point. No psychobabble. This is a common-sense zone only. I use words you can understand, and give information that is useful. You will develop skills you can take home and apply immediately to improve your mood quickly. 
Non-judgmental. Feeling shame or guilt? I don't pass judgment. I am here as your coach to help-YOU. I've worked with people behind bars- so don't worry about what I think. Everyone gets unconditional support and the guidance necessary to change and feel better.
Efficient. I won't waste your time or your money.  Guidance is given. Isn't that why you're here?
Are you... 
Anxious? Stressed out? Worrying? Having Panic Attacks? Phobias? I can help you in the first session. I will give you methods to begin to cut anxiety and stress at its roots. Today. Panic attacks? If so, they can be stopped without medications. Stop living in misery. It doesn't have to be this way.                    
Depressed/bad mood? Chronically tired? Vague sense of guilt? Irritable? I can help you restore hope, and move towards taking charge of your life again.  The cause of depression is not a mystery.  There are a few key, basic factors that we can begin to work on, quickly.
Suicidal? Call now to stop the pain. I care. I worked on a suicide hotline for a half-dozen years. The pain can stop. There ARE alternatives. There are solutions. When you have been feeling this bad for so long, your brain develops a mental fog that doesn't allow you to see them. (see the bottom of the page for immediate, urgent help)
Angry? A little bit too much and a little bit too often? I'll show you what you can do. Don't let anger destroy your relationships and your life.
Self-Esteem running low? We will develop a working plan to boost yourself to new highs.
Jealousy ruining relationships?
Boyfriends / Girlfriends leaving you for mysterious reasons? I'll give you a free "Relationship IQ" assessment.
Dr. Litov has specialty training in Health Psychology, the field of psychology that studies the connections between the mind & body. 
Do you want improve your health? Do you want to:
Exercise? But don't?
Lose weight? But can't?
Eat better? But won't?
Dr. Litov has simple strategies that take you out of your way.
If you've been fighting yourself for too long, come on in.

A Happier, Healthier You
