Dr. Obregon Madera

I'm a bilingual/ bicultural English/Spanish speaking licensed clinical psychologist with a dual one year post-doctoral specialization/ training in rehabilitation psychology and neuropsychology. 

I completed my first Masters degree in Clinical Psychology from California State University, Northridge. My Masters thesis focus was on the assessment of executive functioning in college students presenting with attention deficits. I completed my second Masters degree and Doctoral degree at the APA accredited Clinical-Community Psychology program at the University of La Verne. My dissertation focus was on the cognitive assessment of adults following unilateral cerebrovascular accident. I am currently a reviewer for the Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, Journal of Psychopathology and Behavioral Assessment, and Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology. 

My pre-doctoral experiential training focused on the neuropsychological assessment of children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I completed my APA accredited internship at Child and Family Guidance center where my focus was the assessment and treatment of children and adolescents with ADHD and Autism. 

In my psychotherapy practice I frequently work with clients who present with a range of psychological issues including ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, OCD, grief and loss, and individuals coping with new levels of functioning following life stressors. 

I also have experience providing behavioral parenting training to parents with children with developmental disorders. 

I provide neuropsychological assessment to clients 16 and older for concerns related to ADHD, Autism, and other genetic/ developmental disorders, learning disabilities, and psychiatric illness. I also provide neuropsychological services in English and/or Spanish to adults and older adults for concerns related to the diagnosis and treatment of stroke, traumatic brain injury and concussion, dementia, and other psychiatric and medical illnesses.
