Rick McCarthy, MFT - Founder of Genesis Counseling Center, Torrance, CA
I have been in practice in the South Bay for over 30 years, working with a very diverse population, including individuals, adults, adolescents, and couples with a wide variety of concerns and complex life challenges. I was an associate professor of Psychology, at Marymount College, and have taught graduate courses at Loyola Marymount University and Pepperdine University. For the last 2 consecutive years, I have been the recipient of the Lampert Award from PacifiCare Behavioral Health, which quantifies client outcomes. In effect, my therapeutic effectiveness has been ranked in the top one percent of over 10,000 participating therapists. I have extensive knowledge and experience with a variety of therapeutic modalities, especially cognitive behavioral and brief therapy. This allows me to utilize that which will work best for you, thus enabling you to achieve the most efficient and effective results. Having taught a variety of undergraduate and graduate psychology courses for 28 years helps me stay on the leading edge of theory and technique. I believe in the importance of an integration and balance of a healthy mind, body and spirit.
