Dr. Dan Hartman, a dedicated psychologist with a PsyD from the Rosemead School of Psychology, is committed to helping individuals of all ages—including teens, adults, and elders—achieve healing, growth, and meaningful change. His approach to therapy recognizes that clients have varied motivations for seeking help; approximately one-third are eager to engage in the process, while another third may need additional encouragement to commit to their growth, and the final third often arrives through external insistence. Dan’s role as a therapist encompasses guiding clients to understand their motivations within a respectful framework. He believes that therapy is a progressive journey that addresses issues at three levels: first, the biological/physical aspect; second, the symptomatic management of anxiety and depression; and third, the intricate dynamics of interpersonal relationships. As a human being and a Christian, Dan emphasizes the importance of the therapeutic alliance, skillfully navigating difficult conversations with clarity and compassion. His expertise encompasses marital issues, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy, and family dynamics, making him adept at working with challenging clients who are ready to explore profound transformations.
