About Me

Hi! My name is Paige and I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist. I am happy that you are here to seek care. I look forward to working with you to address ongoing struggles.

Our First Conversation

Our first conversation is a consultation — typically 45 to 60 minutes — to understand what brought you in, what you're hoping to learn or change, and whether a formal assessment, ongoing therapy, or a referral to a colleague would serve you best. I won't recommend testing or treatment you don't need. If we proceed with assessment, I'll walk you through the battery and timeline. If we proceed with therapy, we'll outline a working frame and revisit it as we go.

What You Can Count On From Me

Clients and referrers tell me three things stand out. I take diagnostic ambiguity seriously and won't overstate certainty I don't have. I integrate assessment findings into treatment in a way that's clinically usable, not just descriptive. And I name when I think someone else on our team — or outside it — would serve you better than I can.

Who I’m Here For

I work most often with adults and older adolescents whose presenting concerns warrant either a formal assessment or longer-term psychotherapy. That includes complex diagnostic questions, treatment-resistant symptoms, and presentations where prior brief therapy hasn't moved the needle. I also consult to other clinicians on differential diagnosis and case conceptualization.


My Therapeutic Approach

My practice integrates evidence-based assessment with collaborative treatment planning. Whether the work begins with diagnostic clarification or moves directly into therapy, I take seriously that what we measure shapes what we treat — and that no test result is a substitute for the conversation that surrounds it. For longer-term care, I draw on cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and acceptance-based approaches, matched to what fits the person in front of me rather than the framework I was trained in most recently.

Treatment Methods

Solution-Focused

An evidence-informed therapeutic approach used by our providers. Ask your therapist how they integrate this method into your work together.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT helps you accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than fight them, while taking action aligned with your values. Particularly effective for anxiety, chronic pain, and depression.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps you identify thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress — then build skills to interrupt and change them. Highly effective and well-researched.

Note: Consultations and ongoing sessions run 45 to 60 minutes. Assessment batteries are scheduled separately.
