Roger Schwarz

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am a senior psychotherapist with more than 25 years of experience. Before becoming a therapist, I practiced law and accounting, experiences that gave me a broad understanding of the real-life challenges people face in their relationships, careers, and personal lives.

I bring this practical experience together with my psychological training to offer an integrated, thoughtful approach to therapy. I work to understand each client as a whole person—their history, relationships, current circumstances, strengths, and the challenges that brought them to therapy. My goal is to provide a supportive, experienced perspective while helping clients develop greater insight and make meaningful changes in their lives.
