Therapist Overview
I specialize in the psychology of men. I treat men experiencing sadness, control issues, stress, worry, and anger management. During my postdoctoral fellowship, I treated active military diagnosed with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and PTSD 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.
