Welcome! I’m Dr. Tyler Vasconcellos.

Here are a few things you might want to know about my qualifications and therapeutic style.

  • B.A. in Psychology - Summa Cum Laude - University of CA, San Diego (UCSD)

  • Master of Arts (M.A.) in Clinical Psychology - The Wright Institute - Berkeley, CA

  • Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) - The Wright Institute - Berkeley, CA

As a rule, I bring both my sharp clinical expertise and my full engagement to each and every session. Former patients have said that I’m “engaging… easy to talk to… straightforward… [and] compassionate.” I’m not a clichéd or passive therapist who sits there and says nothing; nor do I try to sell you on how to “cure” or “fix” yourself in 10 sessions or less.

Instead, I prompt my patients to open up in new and sometimes challenging ways in order to help them arrive at new ways of thinking about the problems they’ve been facing. Over the course of therapy, I’ll help you to make sense of what you’re feeling and why, as well as to identify and work through anything that is blocking you from living a more complete, meaningful life… whatever that means to you!
