Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
My approach to therapy is straightforward — understand what is getting in the way, figure out why, and build a clear path forward. I work with adults, couples, and high-achieving professionals who are ready to make real changes, not just talk about them.
I am Dr. Lyndsay Elliott, a licensed clinical psychologist with a PsyD and a postdoctoral fellowship from UCLA. For over 20 years I have provided evidence-based psychotherapy, psychological evaluations, consultations and expert witness testimony to clients navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, chronic stress, relationship conflict, narcissistic abuse recovery, couples conflict, infertility, reproductive mental health, postpartum depression, family conflict, and major life transitions.
My style is warm and engaged, but also direct. Therapy should be useful — sessions that deliver genuine insight, practical tools, and honest feedback that actually moves the needle. I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused intervention, and trauma-informed care, tailoring every treatment plan to each client's specific goals and circumstances.
