I am a board-certified Clinical Psychologist (ABPP) licensed to practice in California and Massachusetts. Based in San Diego, I specialize in working with individuals at any stage of Parkinson’s Disease, helping clients and their loved ones enhance their quality of life. I work with individuals living with Parkinson’s as well as their care partners, and I also offer couples therapy to support the many adjustments that arise in relationships.

I focus on helping clients manage the non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s—such as anxiety, depression, cognitive changes, and relationship stress. Because Parkinson’s is unpredictable, I offer flexibility in how we structure our work. I can meet with individuals, care partners, or both, depending on what is most helpful at a given time. I also prioritize coordination with your care team to ensure integrated, comprehensive support when necessary. My approach is grounded in respect, collaboration, and adaptability, and is always tailored to your specific needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all structure.

My practice is private-pay only. I do not accept insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid, though I provide Superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Most sessions are conducted via telehealth. I also offer in-person sessions on Fridays in Sorrento Valley, and in some cases, a one-time home visit may be available for the initial meeting if you are located in Central or North Coastal San Diego; please inquire if you’re interested.

I offer a free 15-minute video or phone consultation to help us determine whether working together feels like a good fit. You can schedule here: https://elizabeth-torres.clientsecure.me

My professional career began with a degree from the University of California, Santa Cruz, in 1990, followed by a Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) from Rutgers University in 1996. I completed clinical training at Harvard Medical School and McLean Hospital, and spent over two decades in private practice in Boston. During that time, I held academic and supervisory roles focused on evidence-based psychological care. I remain committed to reducing stigma and promoting compassionate, accessible care for those facing mental health challenges.

Contact Dr. Torres:

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in the state of California, practicing since 2009. I have trained and worked in a variety of settings helping individuals with a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress, adjustment disorders, as well as other mental health diagnoses that require a higher level of care. I enjoy helping and supporting others through challenging episodes in their life.

My therapy style can be described as judgment free and supportive yet goal oriented and solution focused. The approaches to therapy that I often utilize include cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, and client centered therapy; however, depending on the presenting concerns and goals may sometimes utilize a mindfulness based or existential approach.

I think that seeking out support takes courage, and my goal is to create a safe and welcoming experience. I look forward to working with you and helping you navigate any obstacles or challenges in your life.

Contact Dr. Tsang:

Effective therapy can address our problems while helping us bring more meaning, self-awareness, and joy into our lives. I feel honored to get to do this work with my patients and aim to meet each person with warmth, compassion, and flexibility.

In therapy, we work together to implement an individualized treatment plan that integrates evidence-based CBT strategies with awareness of each person’s unique goals, values, and strengths.

My patients and I focus on enhancing their understanding of their experience, figuring out what they need to live more fulfilling lives, and implementing practical tools to help them reach their goals.

I aim to help each person I work with make deep and lasting changes and leave treatment with learning and a set of tools they can continue to use on their own.

Sometimes the most difficult and challenging circumstance that you face is the news that you or someone you love has Parkinson’s Disease. People with Parkinson’s experience many stressors. Family role changes, work or career decisions, new medication regimen and even a new lifestyle are just some of the things that can happen. These along with feelings of helplessness and powerlessness are often felt by not only you, but also the people who love and support you. It can feel like you are all alone in your attempts to live with the disease or to support someone diagnosed with Parkinson’s. Eleven years ago, after over 25 years working in the mental health field I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. I have had to learn to advocate for myself in the healthcare system, have made life altering decisions regarding my treatment, made lifestyle changes to adapt to my symptoms and learned about the anxiety and depression that can accompany Parkinson’s. I have dedicated my practice to ensure others living with or caring for somebody with Parkinson’s will not have to struggle alone.

I believe in hope as the catalyst for change. The techniques that I use in therapy are designed to give you hope through validation, education, and supportive listening. I use solution focussed and cognitive behavioral interventions to help you live well with your Parkinson’s.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist here in California and have an office in Escondido. I offer both in person and telehealth (video or phone) sessions. I received my doctorate in 2006 in clinical psychology from the University of Denver, in Denver Colorado and have had my private practice since 2008.

It is a deep joy as well as a profound honor to know and work with my clients – my life is enriched through the work that I am fortunate to do. I focus on adults, both individuals and couples, and while the proverbial door is open to most issues, I specialize in emotions, relationships and trauma.

My clients and I work as a team. We jointly create the support, healing and growth that my client is desiring, as well as deserving. Life truly is a most precious gift and each of us has a birthright, regardless of life’s circumstances, to live in abundance, to thrive and dwell in contentment as well as peace.
