About

Hello and thank you for reading my profile. My name is Maryann Reuter, and I currently reside in Thousand Oaks, California. I was born and raised in NJ, on the Jersey Shore, and moved to CA in 2003. I have been a licensed psychologist in CA since 2011, and last year became licensed in North Carolina and Tennessee to work remotely. I am passionate about reaching individuals from afar that otherwise would not be able to access services in their local community. I strive to create a warm and positive online "office" for you and want you to feel safe, heard, and supported during your time with me. I like to ask about your specific needs, and I like to have feedback about what is working and not working for you so I can help with the process to guide you on your journey forward.

Education & Licensure
Associates degree from Ocean County College in Toms River, NJ; Bachelors degree from Georgian Court College in Lakewood, NJ; Masters degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University in Los Angeles, CA; Ph.D. from the California School of Professional Psychology in Los Angeles, CA
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

My interest and journey into working with adults on the Autism Spectrum began with my conducting evaluation with children and teens. I found there to be little to no services in many communities for adults suspected to have a diagnosis of ASD. My goal is to help those individuals develop a healthy lifestyle, according to their unique desires and needs. Ultimately, I want to help you be your best self. I celebrate diversity in a multitude of areas and promote acceptance and not just tolerance but interest for those hidden or unique traits. I strive to help each person I work with to find their gifts and talents and use it in a way that leads them to feel fulfilled on their life journey.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

I believe in meeting you where you are at in your life and assessing what matters to you. I will ask if and what you wish were different in your life and specifically help you to identify what you are doing well. By identifying strengths and how you utilize your strengths we can then better understand if there are roadblocks in your life. I am determined to work from a strength-based perspective and celebrating each individual and utilizing natural abilities and practicing skills you have already developed. I strongly believe that by being your true, authentic self, that we will get to the heart of a fulfilled and satisfying life for you.
