Why Old Town Psychology

A practice built around variety: We believe that clinicians who engage with their work in multiple ways, including individual therapy, couples work, group therapy, assessment, supervision, research, and training, are better at all of it. Our practice actively supports clinicians in developing a professional life that is rich, varied, and continuously evolving. You will not be pigeonholed into a single role.

A genuinely collaborative culture: At Old Town Psychology, collaboration is not a talking point; it is how we actually work. Clinical decisions are supported through regular case consultation, our team-based approach to training and outreach keeps everyone intellectually engaged, and the relationships between clinicians here are real and mutually supportive. You will not be isolated in a private office, seeing clients in a vacuum.

Meaningful, long-term clinical work: We work with children, adolescents, adults, and families across the full lifespan, and we often develop long-term therapeutic relationships that are genuinely rewarding. The work here matters, and it shows.

A clear path for professional growth: Old Town Psychology is a dynamic, expanding practice, and we believe in helping our team build careers that grow with them. Whether that means developing expertise in a new clinical area, taking on a supervisory role, contributing to practice research, or leading an innovative clinical initiative, we create real opportunities for advancement.

An inclusive and welcoming environment: We serve and welcome clients and colleagues of all ages, races, ethnicities, cultures, national origins, sexual orientations, genders, sexes, religions, and abilities. 

What Our Patients Say

"We brought our daughter in for testing and the OTP team was amazing. They were so kind, caring and great with children. My daughter is shy and takes a little time to warm up when first meeting someone new. The Doctor was patient and encouraging and my daughter had a wonderful time. They also provide fast results and meet with you to explain everything in the report. I would definitely recommend them."

"Very prompt response to our inquiry. Welcoming environment and very professional, thorough communication. The staff genuinely seems to care that your needs are met."

"Excellent service, knowledgeable staff, incredible responsiveness, diligence and follow through -- we feel lucky we found such a great therapy practice. We cannot recommend them highly enough!"

“My daughter took WISC-V test there and we are very pleased with our experience. They are professional, patient and wonderful throughout the entire process. My daughter had such a great time that she hardly felt that was a test - she even asked when she could take it again. I would highly recommend them to whoever needs child IQ testing services.”

“I took my children here for TAG testing. Both of my kids actually enjoyed their assessments. I was very pleased with the time and care taken to assess my children, the thoroughness of the report, and the fact that there was a follow-up session to discuss any questions that I had relative to the assessment included. Also-- the tea selection in the waiting room is top tier :)”

“Very prompt response to our inquiry. Welcoming environment and very professional, thorough communication. The staff genuinely seems to care that your needs are met.”
