Dr. William Valdivia-Mairesse, PSY.D

Always excellent. It's been several years since I last met with him, but his thoughtful, mindful, wise perspectives have been so valuable when dealing with some pretty heavy stuff during the last few years. I will forever be grateful for crossing paths with him and for the things he helped me recognize and overcome.

He was my therapist for 3 years and I’m grateful I took the leap to see a therapist when him and I had our first session. Our sessions molded me overtime and who I was in 2019 is very different than who I am today and a lot of the credit goes to Dr Valdivia—for all the ways he helped me, coached me, guided me, and really heard me. No one could ever really get through to me but he did and I’m forever grateful for his time, patience, kindness, and expertise. I highly recommend him if you’re looking for a therapist. He’s an incredible listener where he really hears you, has a level of empathy out of this world, provides great advice and recommendations, and I believe, from first hand experience, can really change your life if you’re willing to dive into therapy consistently. I moved out of LA almost a year ago and it’s been difficult to find another high caliber therapist like Dr Valdivia—do yourself a favor and call him to a schedule your first appointment, trust me.

He was exactly what I need while I needed it. He constantly challenged me and my perspective, which helped me look at myself differently. His style was a shift from what I had known, but I found refreshing. He also seemed to remember everything I ever said which was simultaneously unnerving and reassuring. I was sad to end our time together prior to moving.

Professional, intelligent and compassionate. He returns calls promptly, is patient with questions and pleasant to speak to. I feel he genuinely cares about people.

Nothing short of a life saver. I have seen nearly a dozen therapists over my lifetime and he is without a doubt the most educated, intelligent, compassionate, and capable psychologist I have ever come across. Truly a blessing that I receive such a high level of care through him. I have made astounding bounds toward bettering myself in large part because of him.
