About Dr. Marvin's Practice
For over a quarter-century, I have provided psychological services to clients from many
walks of life who have presented a diverse range of issues. I am
available for individual, couples, and family therapy sessions. The
majority of clients seek my assistance for distress related to
relationship issues, job stress, and situational events. Overcoming
depression and anxiety as well as adjusting to "bumps in the road"
are common presented goals. Please look over the Issues
Addressed section to see what typical clients
present.
I have extensive experience with
post-trauma reactions due to my many years of
service to public safety agencies. Make sure to visit my Public Safety
Psychology section to learn about my related experience
-- especially if you (or a family member) are employed with a law
enforcement, fire service, emergency medical, or emergency dispatch
agency.
I welcome inquiries from military veterans who
are hesitant about seeking psychological assistance because of
concern about service confidentiality and career security. That is,
many veterans prefer to seek psychological consultation about
post-trauma reactions outside of the VA system to avoid the
bureaucratic paper trail.
In addition to my private practice, I am
Chief Psychologist of Community Research Foundation (CRF).
CRF has 26 mental health programs in San Diego County providing
services to children, families, and adults. My responsibilities
include clinical supervision and training of post-doctoral,
doctoral, and masters degree level interns who are
in process of attaining graduate school and state licensing board
requirements. My position allows me to stay current on research and
advances in the mental health field. I also develop and present
seminars that fulfill mandated continuing educational requirements
for Licensed Psychologists, Licensed Clinical Social Workers, and
Marriage & Family Therapists.
