Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I have worked in the field of psychology for more than 25 years across a variety of settings, including children's group homes, community mental health centers, and private practice. I also served for many years as Director of Mental Health at a large urban preschool, experience that deepened my understanding of child development, family systems, and the complexities of supporting children and their families.
In recent years, my clinical work has increasingly included EMDR for processing specific traumatic experiences, along with nervous-system-informed approaches drawing from Polyvagal Theory. I work with adolescents and adults and also provide parent consultation across developmental stages, with particular interest in supporting parents of neurodivergent children, including autistic children and children with a demand-avoidant/PDA profile.
I have also provided clinical supervision to psychology trainees and marriage and family therapy interns. I love the work I do and remain committed to ongoing learning and professional development so that I can continue to offer thoughtful, individualized support.

Dana Fogel-Stark
Therapist, M.S., LMFT
Welcome to my profile. My name is Dana Fogel-Stark and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist specializing in the treatment of Anxiety Disorders, Depressive Disorder and Couple/Relational Issues. I have been licensed as a psychotherapist for over 20 years and in full time private practice in the heart of Calabasas. My therapeutic approach is eclectic focused on both helping clients gain insight and awareness as to the origin and cause of their struggles as well as helping clients gain the tools and coping mechanisms needed to overcome their challenges. I believe that therapy is most effective when the therapeutic approach is tailored to the specific presenting issues that the client is facing. I create a personalized treatment approach with every new client based on their specific needs. I use Evidence Based Therapy to treat obsessive worries and ruminations, physical manifestations of anxiety, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder, social anxiety, and struggles with perfectionism/performance anxiety. My passion for using CBT is that I get to witness significant improvement with clients in a short period of time. In addition to CBT I also use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Exposure Response Prevention as well as teaching emotional intelligence in my work with clients. I look forward to working with you.
