Dr. Sean Pastor received his B.A. in Psychology from San Jose State University in 2017, his M.A. in Clinical and Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University in 2021, and his PsyD from John F. Kennedy University in 2024. He has primarily worked in hospitals, nursing homes, and community mental health settings in the San Francisco Bay Area with clients of all age ranges and ethnic backgrounds. His interests involve working with adults, forensics, and assessments.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dr. Sean currently serves as the Director of Acute Services for the Psychology Department at Western State Hospital. His focal responsibilities, along with the acute treatment team (consisting of amazing social workers, nurses, recreation therapists, dietitians, and psychiatrists), include developing specific treatment plans for patients on the acute units, leading morning case staffing and treatment team meetings, assigning patient transfers from admissions, coordinating unit bed space and patient movement, determining possible AOT clients, testifying in court, and preparing patients for discharge. Additionally, Dr. Sean also conducts intake assessments for patients who have been newly admitted. In his work with clients, he gravitates towards a Cognitive-Behavioral Theory approach.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When he\u2019s not in the hospital (working), he can be found playing the bass or guitar, rooting for his NBA\/NFL\/MLB teams, exploring trendy food spots, researching puns to annoy his coworkers, playing basketball at one of the courts in town, or watching the greatest movie of all time:\u00a0Titanic<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cLife is a gift, and I don\u2019t intend on wasting it. You never know what hand you\u2019re going to get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you, to make each day count.\u201d-Jack Dawson<\/p>\n
