I think that most of you have just missed what the point of my post was. I respect what everyone said and I appreciate it, I just want to attend school in either California or an ivy league, and there are plenty of programs there (clinical or not) that match my interests. I know myself and I just won't be happy going to school in Iowa or Kansas (no offense if anyone lives there).
I don't think anyone has missed the point of your post - we understand what you said, but we disagree with you. What folks here are saying is that you want a specific type of training, and you are focusing on programs that are unlikely to provide you with that training. To stand a chance at getting in, you need to apply to a lot of programs (10-15), and there are maybe 4-5 programs total from CA/the ivies that
might be what you're looking for. Those are not good odds. You're also focusing on programs that you think are prestigious, but aren't actually presitious when it comes to doctoral psychology. I matched to one of the most competitive internship sites in the country, and not one of current or more recent interns attended any of the grad programs that you mentioned.
Because you're also looking at programs in geographically desirable areas, you're going to have much more competition.
You have a good CV, but your two areas of weakness are your GRE and your GPA, and those are the two areas that are most commonly used to weed out applicants. It's great that your psych GPA is 3.9, but your cumulative is 3.4, and some programs use 3.5 as a cutoff. Your GRE is also likely to be below the minimum score that some programs use to make the first round of cuts. It doesn't matter how strong your research experience is, and your letters of recommendation are, if no one in the department ever reads your application because you didn't make it through the first cut. You can't change your GPA at this point, but I'd suggest that you put everything you've got into bringing that GRE up.
Finally, consider the fact that grad school is intensely stressful and busy, and you're probably not going to care what kinds of local attractions are available to you because you're going to be too busy to spend much time outside of the department. If you've never lived outside of a major metro area (I hadn't before grad school, either), you don't actually know that you "can't" do it - you're just making assumptions, and you're really going to hobble your chances of getting in. If you really are committed to doing this work, you need to be open to the possibility of doing it outside of CA.
ETA: I came back and bolded my advice about your GRE and GPA, as you were asking for practical advice and those are two weak areas in your applications. In terms of the psych GRE, I would suggest taking a practice test to get a sense of how prepared you are. You've still got lots of time to prepare for it, and if you can take it and do well, it might help to bolster you applications. If you're going to get an average score, I wouldn't take it unless you're applying to a program that requires it.
