Dr. Gary Bell, LMFT

People are my passion. I’m here to support individuals, couples, and families in navigating life’s challenges and strengthening their relationships. With over 20 years of experience and thousands of clients served, I bring a mix of compassion, practical insight, and a touch of humor to my sessions. My approach is direct yet relaxed, because I believe healing happens best in a space that feels both safe and authentic. I work efficiently and intentionally with people of all ages, cultures, gender identities, and backgrounds to help them find clarity, growth, and meaningful change.

Professional experience

I hold a Doctorate in Counseling Psychology (Ed.D, Summa Cum Laude) from Argosy University in Orange, California. Before that, I earned a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology (Summa Cum Laude) from California Baptist University in Riverside. I also have a Bachelor of Science in Marketing from the University of Evansville in Indiana, giving me a unique perspective on human behavior and communication that informs my therapeutic work.
