Dr. John Choy, PsyD

Dr. John Choy, PsyD

Psychologist
CA
Hi, I'm Dr. John Choy! I'm a Licensed Psychologist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, and Certified Alcohol & Drug Abuse Counselor based in Redondo Beach, California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with individuals and couples and specialize in solution-focused therapy to resolve personal distress and interpersonal discord, helping you actualize your immense potential to overcome any obstacle and become all you were created to be. I earned my PsyD from the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology, which, combined with my broad professional training, uniquely qualifies me to treat mood, stress, substance abuse, self-esteem, relationship, grief, and life transition issues. My approach to therapy is purpose-driven: I aim to broaden your vision and empower you with new perspectives and tools to co-create the steps that will help you achieve your goals. I draw from a broad spectrum of theoretical approaches—not limited to cognitive-behavioral therapy but enriched with holistic health and wellness, fitness, nutritional and life coaching, and Christian counseling for those with whom these resources resonate. I primarily work with individuals and couples, specializing in solution-focused therapy to resolve personal and interpersonal challenges and maximize your potential to create your best life now. My communication style fosters a positive, accepting, relaxed, yet focused atmosphere through intentional listening to fully understand your unique life circumstances and issues. When working with me, you will know that your priorities are my priorities, what’s important to you is important to me, and that together we will co-create steps to help you achieve your goals, empowering you with a positive outlook on life and your situation. Growing up with my eldest brother as a Licensed Psychologist, I was naturally inclined to follow in his footsteps as he modeled the way.
