Dr. Gita Donovan, PsyD

Psychotherapist
CA
We all have ideas—how we think we should feel, how we feel we should think, how we want others to behave toward us, and how we want our life to unfold. When reality doesn’t match our ideals, it can bring confusion, frustration, and even despair. We may feel trapped between our ideals and reality, leading us to believe we are spinning in circles. I see the therapeutic process as one that allows for an exploration of these ideals and an opportunity to understand how they play a role in one’s relationship with self and with others. My hope is that, through this process, you will find a deeper clarity of your values, wants, and needs. I aspire to help you cultivate personal strength, attune to your inner compass, and gain traction in reality, ultimately allowing you to walk in the direction of your ideals. I deeply respect the person who chooses to take these steps and would honor the chance to walk beside you through this process. I earned my PsyD from Alliant University and hold a bachelor’s degree from Northwestern University, which have both shaped my approach to therapy and commitment to supporting clients on their journeys.
