Meet Dr. Penelope Underwood

Dr. Penelope Underwood has been a licensed clinical psychologist for close to 17 years. She studied at UCLA and Pepperdine then worked on the adolescent unit of an inpatient psychiatric hospital. She spent the majority of her career providing services in an adolescent group home and ran a small private practice. More recently, She has been running group therapy with an intensive outpatient population and is expanding her private practice. She is a single mom of two children and made that transition after a 20-year marriage.

Through all the challenges that her transition brought her, she learned a lot about herself and redefined who she is more authentically and congruent with her soul. Although this was not easy and admits it will always be a work in progress. She states, as with any transition comes an opportunity for growth, and that growth has afforded her the kind of happiness that makes this turn of the earth worth living. Her goal is to assist others in their transition so they get the same opportunity to live their best lives.
