Christine Lopez has practiced Educational Therapy for the last 10 years, both in the U.S. and Europe. After graduating from California Baptist University in 1997 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and English, Mrs. Lopez immediately began working with one of the country’s most prestigious Educational Therapy trainers, Jill Stowell. At the Stowell Learning Center, Mrs. Lopez quickly moved up to a Clinical Supervisor position, displaying strengths in evaluating the unique needs of each child and preparing detailed individual therapy plans focusing on using a child’s strengths to improve his/her weaknesses. 

Later, Ms. Lopez began working with the Kaiser Watts Counseling and Learning Center where she provided services to the community through individual therapy, assessments and parent/teacher trainings. During this time, she also did extensive research on the symptoms and remediation of dyslexia and compiled a manual to aid in attention and memory training. After several years, Mrs. Lopez and her family moved to Istanbul, Turkey where she explored the connection between art (including drawing, music and dance) and the remediation of learning disabilities. She also collaborated with a Turkish university and researched the symptoms of ADD/ADHD across the two cultures. 

Finally, Mrs. Lopez returned to Los Angeles and began training educational therapists, teachers and other educators in attention and memory techniques. Mrs. Lopez feels extremely privileged to join the team at The Child Success Center, a group of professionals who genuinely care about the unique needs of each child and who lovingly implement therapy on a daily basis.
