ABOUT
My name is George Holbrook
I am a highly experienced therapist, who helps people reconnect with their most authentic selves through compassion, self-awareness, curiosity, and exploration. For over three decades plus, I have been collaborating with people to empower them to take back control of their lives by helping them get to know their true selves and encourage them with the power of choice.
My focus is helping clients with depression, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, addictions, relationships, and other issues in order to enjoy greater peace, balance, and wholeness. I work with adults, youth, couples, and families and am eager to assist clients of all ages, races, cultures, and identities.
I earned my Master’s Degree in Counseling from La Verne University and have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Cal State Fullerton. I am a certified trauma and substance abuse counselor. Previously, I have worked in the field of mental health in both private and non-profit government and community agencies including nine years as a college instructor.
I am also husband to my strong and beautiful wife, and a proud parent of two . All of these experiences have informed my work as a therapist.
I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you and assist you on your journey.
How Therapy Works
Therapy rests on the knowledge that negative life traumas are shared human experience. Within the sacred therapy space both therapist and client are impacted and transformed. The therapeutic goal is to reduce shame states and offer potential for greater liberation, more flexibility of thought, and the feeling that a fuller and richer life is possible towards wholeness.
