“To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail.” ~ Mark Twain
I never knew that I was going to be a healer when I grew up, but my friends certainly saw that potential in me. Over the years, people from all walks of life have felt comfortable and safe sharing their personal secrets with me, and I was always more than happy and willing to help them sort out issues from relationship conflicts to personal identity confusion. My skills and sense of responsibility for helping others developed in college where I became a peer counselor and realized my passion for psychology and the healing arts. From there, I applied to a doctoral program in psychology and am now in the final stages of completing my dissertation.
With over 6 years and 3,000 hours of professional clinical experience, I now specialize in treating men’s issues, addictions, and other concerns such as depression and anxiety. Dr. Spenser and I also offer testing and evaluation with an emphasis on personality assessment and career matching.
In addition to my work as a psychological assistant in the San Diego area, I am an Associate Faculty member at Ashford University and am also a nationally syndicated mental health and wellness columnist for the San Diego Gay and Lesbian News.
I am Stephen Brewer and I am a registered psychological assistant to clinical psychologist Angela Spenser, Ph.D (PSY15450).
