In her work with patients and physicians in large integrated healthcare systems as a Clinical Health Psychologist, Dr. West realized her true passion lies in making psychological theory accessible, memorable, and practical. She traded a career in academic medicine to focus on bridging the gap between psychological research and what works “on the ground” in real-world situations. Specializing in implementation science and Train-the-Trainer methodology, Dr. West designs programs that maximize people’s psychological flexibility, fulfillment, and wellbeing.
