Dr. Michelle Beakey, is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with expertise in evidence-based practices. She specializes in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP) for anxiety disorders, including social anxiety, panic, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). Dr. Beakey also treats autism spectrum disorders (ASD), incorporating social skills training into the treatment for optimal results.
​


Her clinical experience includes evaluating, diagnosing, and treating mental illness in children, adolescents, and adults. She is experienced in providing comprehensive assessments for behavioral disorders, ADHD, and learning disorders, as well as neuropsychological testing. Her predoctoral internship involved conducting evaluations for court proceedings and for a myriad of psychological and neuropsychological disorders. Her postdoctoral training included providing therapy in the nonprofit sector, for victims of crimes in Los Angeles county. As such, the training incorporated evidence-based treatment for PTSD and other anxiety and mood disorders.
Dr. Beakey believes in CBT as a treatment modality because it helps individuals feel better more quickly. Moreover, the treatment helps individuals change unhelpful thought patterns and build skills that can be used throughout the lifespan. She has utilized CBT to treat individuals for over 10 years and she is passionate about the life-changing impact it can have.


Dr. Beakey’s determination as a psychologist is motivated by her belief in the possibility for change, as well as the immense courage and resiliency exhibited by those she treats.
