About
Dr. Jon Fledzinskas
Clinical & Performance Psychologist Based in West LA
Hi! Thanks for visiting this small webpage about me. My name is Jon and my preferred pronouns are he/him/his. I am a licensed clinical and performance psychologist based out of Southern California. I’ve been providing clinical services since 2016 and value helping people. In my work I always make it a point to emphasize empathy, compassion, and loving-kindness.
I feel that I am on a lifelong journey involving continued growth and learning more about myself and the people I have the privilege to work with. I am striving to be a better person professionally and personally each day. My work as a clinical psychlogist truly aligns with what I feel my purpose in life is, and I enjoy my job tremendously.
After I finished my graduate studies at California Lutheran University I completed my doctoral internship at the University of Oklahoma within the Oklahoma Sport Psychology Consortium in 2020. Before moving back to my family and friends in California, I then finished my post-doctoral training at Commander Counseling and Wellness in Norman, OK in 2021.
