About Dean Lim (He/Him)
Dr. Dean Lim is a Psychologist in California who has been practicing since 2014. Dr. Lim makes it a point to work with his patients as a teammate. His intention is to help people explore the issues that are bringing them pain, fear, anger, or hopelessness in a safe and controlled environment. Dr. Lim believes that psychotherapy is hard work and will be there to be a guide and support as people challenge themselves to grow or adapt to the problems they are facing in their lives. Outside of the office, Dr. Lim enjoys weightlifting, hiking and seeing national parks, eating good food, watching TV shows and movies, listening to and playing music, and spending time with family and friends.
