Reputable programs in Southern California include:
UCLA's Clinical Psychology Ph.D.
USC's Clinical Science Ph.D.
UC Santa Barbara's Counseling, Clinical, & School Psychology Ph.D.
UC Riverside's School Psychology Ph.D.
SDSU/UCSD's Clinical Psychology Ph.D.
Programs that are in Southern California and are less competitive, but still more reputable than ones you listed would be:
Pepperdine's Psy.D.
Loma Linda Psy.D. or Ph.D.
Biola Psy.D. or Ph.D.
Fuller Theological Seminary Psy.D. or Ph.D.
and I would absolutely stay away from:
Any Alliant, Argosy, Antioch, etc
Anything for "professional psychology" in the title
Pacifica
University of LaVerne
I am unsure of your interests so I included all licensable doctoral programs that I knew of in Southern California, whether clinical, counseling, or school. If you're interested only in counseling, you may have a better chance at being accepted to a master's level licensable program, and it would really depend on what you'd like to do after.
UCLA and USC have excellent MSW programs with state stipends if you participate in certain programs (e.g. with CPS or DMH) as does CSU Los Angeles. Pretty much any of the California State University campuses will have MFT departments, I just don't know how reputable they are (CSULA, CSU Northridge, CSU Long Beach, CSU Dominguez Hills, San Diego State University, CSU Fullerton, CSU Channel Islands, CSU Bakersfield).
I am extremely family oriented and truly believe my mental health would plummet if I had to leave California for more than a year or two. I was told early on that wanting a doctoral degree, especially a licensable one, would not be feasible if I was geographically limited, so I planned around that to ensure I stayed, but this resulted in extra time. I had to take more time to retake the GRE twice to be up to an acceptable standard to the UC system and I earned a master's degree to obtain some publications and complete a thesis. So, time was my sacrifice. I think everyone has to make one, be it time, or moving away from family, but I wouldn't let that sacrifice be attending a poor program just to get going, as the consequences of that (financially, and career satisfaction wise, and then financially again as a result of difficulty finding a job) are just too severe. There are success stories from every professional program, but statistically, it's just better not to fight an uphill battle. I'd suggest attending one of those mid-range programs I mentioned if you're absolutely 100% set on getting a doctoral degree in Southern California (they are very expensive though), or, obtaining a licensable master's degree if you want to get started immediately, and if you can take some time, then I'd suggest doing a terminal experimental master's degree and applying to the higher tier, funded programs.
Good luck!!!
