Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP)Psychologist, PsyD

About

Hi, I'm Dr. Trevor Alleman, a licensed psychologist practicing in Santa Barbara and virtually throughout California. If you’ve tried therapy before but didn’t get the results you hoped for, you’re not alone. Many people discuss their feelings in therapy without truly processing them. I specialize in ISTDP (Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy), a powerful and experiential approach designed to uncover and resolve unconscious emotional blocks that keep you stuck. ISTDP helps people achieve deep, lasting change—often in a shorter time than traditional talk therapy. ISTDP is a well-researched therapy model that is used to treat various symptoms and disorders, from anxiety and depression to OCD, personality disorders, and dysfunctional relationship patterns. ISTDP is not a cookie-cutter approach. Rather, it is a highly flexible approach that adapts to each person's unique needs, goals, and capacities.
