Licensed psychologist with 35-plus years of San Diego experience at 3262 Holiday Ct, La Jolla, CA 92037 — the building adjacent to the 3252 Holiday Ct psychiatric complex where Kadima Neuropsychiatry Institute, Center Point Medicine, and over a dozen other mental health providers practice. Dr. M. Gene Ondrusek holds a PhD in Psychology and Pharmacology from the University of Texas at Austin, completed post-doctoral work at UCSF and UNC School of Medicine, and served as the initial consulting psychologist for the reality television series "Survivor." His practice uses CBT and ACT for depression, anxiety, panic disorder, OCD, and stress management, while his psychopharmacology training allows him to coordinate medication strategies with prescribing physicians. He also provides psychological evaluations, executive coaching, and employee selection consulting for organizations. Next door at 3252 Holiday Ct Suite 114, Bales Psychology Clinic handles the formal cognitive and neurodevelopmental testing that Dr. Ondrusek's therapy-focused practice does not perform in-house.
