Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I'm a psychologist with expertise in working with anxiety, depression, dissociation, and the full range of traumatic experiences and specialize in supporting clients who feel that therapy isn't for them. In working with me you can expect a high level of collaboration, dedication to your success, and lots of nerdy metaphors. I draw from interpersonal neurobiology, developmental psychology, and attachment theory to make evidence-based therapy models less generic and more useful for your specific situation.

I believe motivated individuals can change, no matter how difficult things may seem. I offer culturally competent care and a trauma-informed perspective. I start with listening to your story, including your needs and present challenges. I help you by creating a custom game plan to get you moving forward, and I support your progress and celebrate your successes along the way. I provide an inclusive space, easygoing approach to therapy, and in-person or telehealth appointments to fit your schedule so you can take a step forward.
