when the risk to remain tight in a bud
was more painful than the risk it took

Why We’re Here
Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Ventura County
Overcoming life’s considerable challenges or trying to help those you love to do so, can leave anyone feeling overwhelmed and alone. We get it! We know that reaching out to others for help when you aren’t completely convinced things can get better takes true courage and a bit of a leap of faith.
We’re here because we know that if you surround people with those who believe in them wholeheartedly, give them the tools they need to help themselves. Anyone can get unstuck. We bring families, schools, and local agencies and caregivers together as a team. We collaborate on a plan that helps individuals gain confidence by achieving the goals they set for themselves.
Our entire team is committed to helping children, teens and adults to not only function well but to thrive independently at home, in school, at work and in their communities.
Thanks for visiting – and for making the leap.

How we can help
Laurie Singer Behavioral Services specializes in behavioral therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Both therapies are based on strong scientific evidence and the understanding that our thoughts, feelings and behaviors are highly interdependent. If you create positive change in one of the three, the other two change for the better as well. CBT also helps individuals challenge the automatic negative thoughts and unproductive core beliefs that can continue to create tangles in life.
Be prepared to actively engage in learning and working toward developing new ways of thinking and behaving. We take a do-more-talk-less approach that helps children, teens and adults become (or rediscover) who they are meant to be, and to do so sooner rather than later.

Ah, Earth Day…that time of year when trees are hugged and plastic bags are shamed. But have you ever noticed how rolling up your sleeves and planting something green can feel so uplifting and fulfilling? This day isn't just about saving our planet; it’s also about keeping our own mental needs in check. Studies show that communing with nature shoots cortisol levels down faster than you can say "eco-anxiety." Mother Earth kindly offers her therapeutic services free of charge—no co-pay required. So grab a biodegradable shovel, plant some sanity seeds, and watch both your garden and spirit bloom like they just received sunlight for the first time!

This evening marks the optimal time to observe the Lyrid Meteor Shower. As discussed in previous posts, there are significant benefits to pausing and dedicating time to gaze at the night sky. Engaging in stargazing can reduce cortisol levels and alleviate stress. The gentle allure of the sky offers a cognitive respite, restoring mental clarity. It redirects focus from personal challenges, rendering them less significant within the vastness of the universe. This phenomenon, known as the Overview Effect, can foster enhanced feelings of tranquility and gratitude. #LyridMeteorShower #stargazing #meteorshower #nightlife
Laurie was interviewed by Parade Magazine to discuss her commitment to health, setting fitness goals and reaching them as a 66-year-old endurance athlete. This is a great look in to the ins and outs of what it takes to stay fit as we age.
Appearing in both the New York and California Post, Laurie shared her personal, harrowing story of being involved in an “Alpine Divorce” which is when a hiking partner leaves another on the trail. Suffering from altitude sickness and left alone, it was her resilience that stopped a terrible situation from becoming tragic.
Laurie offers her thoughts on the connection between obesity and depression and the importance of recognizing signals that often trigger detrimental behavior and replacing them before they present themselves.
