With a calling to help others, I'm a licensed clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience. I've worked for many years in residential care and community mental health. With experience in different clinical settings, I was most recently the department director at a large private facility where I've contributed to assessing and treating dually diagnosed patients.
My work experience consists of trauma-informed treatment with children, child custody evaluations, long-term insight-oriented therapy with adults, as well as inpatient assessment and short-term treatment. Being the Program Director at Aton Center, I'm helping patients overcome substance abuse and other psychological disorders. I've always taken a diverse treatment approach, utilizing CBT and psychodynamic methodologies to help patients. I'm also an active member of the San Diego Psychological Association, which helps me remain updated with the community standards in my field.
