She earned her doctorate from the California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University in 2000, following a master's in marriage and family therapy from Loma Linda University, building a CBT-oriented skill set that coordinates with the medication management available through prescribing providers at Psychiatric Wellness Center. Dr. Swain treats ADHD, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, OCD, PTSD, and sleep disturbance in patients aged eleven through sixty-five and older. Her clinical background spans hospital, outpatient clinic, and crisis facility settings, with concentrated expertise in fertility-related distress, women's health concerns, and midlife transitions. Integrative wellness strategies for stress management extend to body-based interventions at Cap Wellness Center, where physiological regulation techniques complement the cognitive restructuring protocols Dr. Swain applies in session.
