TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
My background is in both psychoanalysis and neuroscience (doctorate) and I am also a Certified and Licensed Psychoanalyst. So I am able to bring both a background in research into mind/brain issues, and I am trained as a clinician. I have been working with trauma for many years, and most recently (2016) I have been working with traumatic brain injury patients (including professional athletes). I am grateful for my dual background in mind/brain, because all brain injured patients require both perspectives. In August of 2023 I published "The Complex Architecture and Healing of Traumatic Brain Injuries: Listening to The Brain" with Cambridge Scholars Publishing in the UK. This is the story (based on case histories) of the journey to find a "healing road" for all persons who have had serious disruptions in brain functioning. This is very, very challenging territory to work in. And in my experience, requires a great collaboration between doctor and patient. I am also the author of "Moon Over Seaville," the story of the hunt for a serial arsonist in Southern California (in 4 Episodes). Available everywhere under "Mystery/Thrillers." I have patients all across the country (via phone). Brain injuries can be healed!

18 Years Experience
Online in Santa Maria, CA
Santa Maria is a Central Coast California city in Santa Barbara County with one of California's largest proportions of Latino residents and an economy anchored by agriculture, oil, and wine production—particularly in the nearby Santa Maria Valley wine region—and the mental health landscape reflects the specific challenges of a working-class agricultural community where many residents are farmworkers or their family members, facing occupational health risks, economic precarity, immigration stress, and limited access to services. Marian Regional Medical Center provides health services, and community health organizations serve the significant uninsured and underinsured farmworker population, though the gap between mental health need and available culturally competent Spanish-language care is persistent. Common therapy concerns include farmworker stress and occupational health, immigration trauma and undocumented status anxiety, family and intergenerational dynamics in a community navigating significant acculturation pressures, and access barriers in a city where the majority population is often underserved by formal mental health systems.
