Insight Psychotherapy Group (IPG) is a multidisciplinary counseling and assessment group in Los Alamitos, CA, providing services to families, couples, children, adolescents and adult/geriatric individual clients from the surrounding communities and school districts. Recently, in addition to adding neuropsychological testing services with Dr. Charlotte Modahl, IPG has added to their staff roster and product lines to be able to continue providing quick access to services. The addition of more staff and the accompanying infrastructure ensures IPG can field requests for consultations (counseling, testing/assessment and business consultations) with a "same business day" response goal.
Dr. Nicole Stelter, PhD, MFT (Founder and CEO of IPG) coordinates the business consulting product lines. This includes employee assistance programming, organizational development and assessment projects and career counseling and assessment for individual clients and as a part of business outplacement activities secondary to a layoff or reorganization.
