During my postdoctoral fellowship, I treated active military diagnosed with PTSD, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse by conducting both individual and group therapy.
I am also a bilingual psychologist at UCSD Primary Care and the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association, an organization focused on testing professional boxers for performance enhancing drugs to promote a clean sport. As a Spanish-speaking psychologist, I have been able to treat patients from different cultures.

I work both with individuals and couples, with much experience in working with chronic and terminal illnesses, substance abuse, anxiety, depression, trauma, life adjustments and couples issues including betrayals and sexuality I customize my treatment specifically for the individuals/couples sitting with me.
Do you ever ask yourself, "My partner and I are successful in so many ways, why does our relationship feel so painfully disconnected?" Allow me to guide you in restoring the connection you once enjoyed together. Damaged trust, anger, infidelity, money problems, lack of sex, intimacy and affection are among the problems that can erode a relationship. I will provide you with tools that will help you move towards rebuilding trust, closeness and integrity in the relationship. I will also teach you how to effectively get what you want from your partner and the relationship. About 50% of my practice is couples, 50% is individual therapy.

As a Mental Health Therapist, I embarked on my journey of self-development in 2014, catalyzed by a life-altering panic attack during a traumatic event. Initially feeling isolated in my struggles, I sought help and immersed myself in various modalities aimed at nurturing my soul back to health. Through years of introspection and growth, I came to appreciate the profound significance of therapy as a safe haven, cultivating self-awareness, and harnessing the transformative potential of cognitive techniques. That's when I made the choice to transition from my role as an engineer to become a therapist.

Hi there, I'm Mary Lou! I'm really glad you're here. This is a space where you can speak freely, be yourself, and know you're not alone. Whatever brings you in today, we'll work through it together - at your pace, in your way. You're in the right place. I use psychodynamic therapy to help you understand how your past experiences, especially from childhood, are quietly shaping the way you feel, think, and behave today. Once you become more aware of these patterns, you can make healthier choices and feel more in control of your life.

Many believe that my main responsibility as a clinical psychologist is to find what is “wrong” with people. While diagnosing is an important part of treatment it is far from the most important part. We will explore who you are, where you’ve been, and where you’d like to go. I treat every person like the unique individual they are. My strength-based approach focuses on what’s RIGHT with you and how we are going to leverage that to create the life you so desire. So, let’s get started.
