Dr. Chris Patton, Psy.D.

Dr. Patton is a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise in relationships and personality. He believes healing happens through nurturing relationships. Through the therapeutic relationship one can increase their understanding of themselves and others. This increased understanding of oneself clarifies their needs and generalizes to their personal relationships. When one feels wholeheartedly connected with others and their community they become empowered.

Dr. Patton has expertise in psychological testing for complex clinical issues, neurodiversity, memory and attention, as well as neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s or dementia.

He knows it is essential for diversity to be incorporated in testing and therapy to help one be fully understood.

When not at Sano Counseling he provides clinical guidance for a team providing case management services for underserved older adults in the greater Los Angeles area.

In his free time he enjoys everything outdoors.

If you have tried therapy before and had trouble feeling understood he may be the therapist for you.
