Welcome! I’m glad you’re here.
Choosing a psychologist is one of the most personal decisions you’ll make, and I believe you deserve to know a little about the person you’ll be trusting with your story.
I was raised in Simi Valley and am grateful to be returning home after spending the past 14 years building my career as a psychologist. Coming back to the community that helped shape me feels like both a personal and professional full-circle moment.
My path to becoming a psychologist has been shaped by both education and life experience. As a mother of four, I’ve experienced the profound joy that comes with raising a family, as well as the challenges that can quietly accompany motherhood. Following the births of my children, I experienced postpartum depression and anxiety, and two of my children required extended stays in the NICU.
Those experiences gave me a deeply personal understanding of how overwhelming, isolating, and transformative this season of life can be. While my own experiences are not the focus of our work together, they have strengthened my empathy and reinforced my commitment to providing specialized, evidence-based care for women navigating pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, anxiety, and life’s many transitions.
I am proud to be Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International, which reflects advanced training in the unique emotional needs of women during pregnancy, postpartum, and related seasons.
Although maternal mental health is my specialty, I also enjoy working with adolescents, college students, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity development, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I have always been fascinated by how our experiences shape us and by the remarkable capacity people have to grow when given the right support, insight, and tools.
Clients often tell me they appreciate that I bring both warmth and honesty into the therapy room. I believe healing happens within authentic relationships. I will celebrate your progress, sit with you through heartbreak, ask thoughtful questions, gently challenge patterns that no longer serve you, and occasionally laugh with you along the way. Therapy should feel like a place where you can be completely yourself—without judgment—and where meaningful growth is possible.
One of the reasons I chose the name Renascence for my practice is because it perfectly reflects what I believe therapy can offer. Renascence means rebirth, renewal, and transformation. Throughout our lives, we are continually evolving. Some seasons ask us to let go of old identities. Others invite us to rediscover parts of ourselves that have been buried beneath stress, grief, fear, or responsibility. While change is rarely easy, it can also become one of life’s most beautiful opportunities for growth.
It is an incredible privilege and honor to walk alongside my clients as they navigate those moments of transformation. I view this work as sacred, and I find so much fulfillment being a part of someone’s story and a small light on their path to healing and hope. My hope is that when you leave therapy, you don’t simply feel better—you understand yourself more deeply, trust yourself more fully, and move through life with greater confidence, resilience, and peace.
I look forward to meeting you.
Warmly,
Dr. Lisa Slover, PsyD, PMH-C
