Spectrum Psych LA

The folks at Spectrum Psych LA are some of my most trusted referral partners. They take a truly collaborative approach and provide high level services and support to families.

Cannot speak highly enough of this team. First of all, the owner is incredible and she has built an amazing team of therapists who I have personally collaborated with over clients at my practice and you can truly see the difference they make in each of their client/families' lives.

Dr. Sam Valasek is so unbelievably warm and kind. I've known her for years now and would never hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an empathetic, compassionate, and knowledgeable OT.

I've known Samantha Valasek for almost twenty years. She is an intelligent person, a compassionate listener, a diligent worker, and a wonderful friend. I've seen the amount of care, attention, and research that she puts into her practice and her clients, and I would sincerely recommend her to friends, family, or anyone looking for grounded and approachable therapy.

Dr. Sarah Bruce at Spectrum Psych is fantastic! She's so knowledgeable in what she does and has a very warm approach catered to what a client may need. Dr. Bruce works with children and their family members, as well as adults in individual therapy. Her affirming style also helps clients feel comfortable coming to her as they are.

Hannah Sandler is an awesome therapist. She is empathetic, an amazing listener, and provides authentic support to her clients while helping them to develop insight and address their struggles in a safe and warm environment. I would absolutely recommend her to my family and friends.

The providers at Spectrum Psych LA are exceptional! What an all-star team. Dr. Dow's mission to create a mental health home for neurodivergent folks across the lifespan has filled the gap by providing top-notch, specialized, multidisciplinary services. And who wouldn't want to visit a beautiful office in West LA with ocean views?! 😍 I would absolutely recommend them to my friends and family.

Dr. Deanna Dow is the best! I met her at UCLA during her internship/postdoc and she has always been a kind and incredible clinician. Families looking for high quality care should definitely consider coming to Spectrum Psych.
