Hello! I'm Dr. Chyneitha Cook. Thank you for visiting my profile. I have provided a variety of mental health services to children, adolescents, and adults within multiculturally-diverse communities in Southern California. My clinical focus is on assisting women with mental health issues that directly affect them in their various roles in life.
