I work with individuals who have experienced traumatic events which they may need help overcoming. During my postdoctoral fellowship, I treated active military diagnosed with PTSD, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse by conducting both individual and group therapy. Working with active military, I learned how to gain the individual's trust and confidence to let me into their lives, providing a nonjudgmental space to process life's events. My research has concentrated on men's issues. My doctoral dissertation focused on professional boxers and how they adjusted to retirement once the fame and fortune was gone.
I am also a bilingual psychologist at UCSD-Family Medicine and UCSD-Internal Medicine. Being one of the few Spanish-speaking psychologists, I have had the opportunity to treat many Latino males and learned to adapt and adjust to each patient's personality.
Making that first call to a psychologist can be difficult, especially for men. Society has bred us to withhold our emotions and "handle it like a man."I invite you to give me a call to discuss whether you'd like to come in for an appointment.
