Hello! I am Dr. Efrain Zepeda. I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Social Worker. In the past 23 years of working as a mental health professional, one important lesson I have learned is that the most powerful therapeutic intervention is found in the interpersonal experience that occurs in the client-therapist relationship. Together we can analyze the past to co-create a new meaning to achieve healing. I strongly believe that therapy is not about labeling or judging, but rather about personal discovery.
Throughout these years I have worked with individuals, families, and couples using an empathetic and compassionate approach. This approach has allowed them to pave the path toward self-growth, self-agency, and self-efficacy. I specialize in attachment dynamics, trauma-based conditions, and behavioral as well as cognitive challenges.
Additionally, I am a Certified Sexual Compulsion Specialist, I implement behavioral interventions to decrease compulsions and maladaptive behaviors. I am also a certified Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Practitioner who has also been trained to use Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques.
One of my strengths is the ability to combine interpersonal therapeutic skills with emotionally-focused treatment to increase awareness and empathy.

My wife and I recently had a virtual session with Dr. Efrain Zepeda through and I can honestly say he exceeded our expectations in every way. He created an environment that felt safe, respectful, and supportive. He has a rare balance of warmth and authenticity while still being direct, insightful, and constructive which What stood out most to me was that my wife immediately connected with him. In the past, she hasn’t felt comfortable with other counselors we’ve seen, so this was truly meaningful
