I’m Dr. Valeria (Val) Valdivieso, a licensed, bilingual clinical psychologist based in Atlanta, GA, and the founder of Insight & Dynamics Psychotherapy.
If you’ve found your way here, you’re likely seeking a deeper more meaningful way of understanding yourself. Maybe you’ve noticed patterns in your life that feel hard to break — ways of thinking, reacting, or relating that seem to repeat themselves no matter how much you try to change them. You want to get to the root of these patterns, not just manage them, and truly understand them — and through this, discover new ways of showing up in the world.
This is the kind of work we do in long term therapy — where self-improvement unfolds over time, offering space to reflect, make sense of your story, and create real, lasting change. This is therapy for personal growth, not just symptom relief — for people who want to understand themselves more deeply and live more intentionally.

Creating a plan that works for you
We are all unique beings, and we each carry a personal collection of experiences, relationships, and emotional landscapes. That’s why we believe in creating a treatment approach that’s custom-tailored to you. We thrive on getting to know you deeply — how you work, what you need, and what will actually help you grow. Your therapy process will look different from anyone else’s, and that’s exactly how it should be.
