My name is Sophia De La Torre and I am a first year PsyD student at Alliant International University-Los Angeles in the Clinical Psychology program. I obtained my bachelor’s and master’s from Cal State Dominguez Hills by 2017. I have some experience with working with clients struggling with eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, and personality disorders. My long term goals are to be a licensed clinical psychologist in California working with clients going through health crisis i.e. cancer treatment as well as individuals going through the grieving process. I would also like to conduct psychological assessments in the future.
