Odom Psychological Services
Psychologist, PsyD
I am a licensed psychologist who works with adolescents and adults. My clinical approach is direct, collaborative, and practical. I want clients to understand what is contributing to their difficulties and leave therapy with skills they can use in their everyday lives.
My background includes clinical and forensic psychology settings. I have worked with people experiencing trauma, emotional dysregulation, behavioral problems, interpersonal difficulties, and a range of other mental health concerns. That experience has made me attentive to the broader context of a person’s life rather than focusing only on symptoms or diagnostic labels.
In therapy, I primarily use cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavior therapy approaches. I adapt treatment based on the person in front of me, their goals, and what appears to be maintaining the problem. I tend to work well with clients who want an active therapist and who are willing to look closely at patterns in their emotions, behavior, relationships, and coping.
I value straightforward communication and a strong working relationship. I also use humor when it fits the person and the situation. My role is to help clients make sense of what they are experiencing, identify where change is possible, and build strategies that are useful outside of the therapy session.

Joanne A. Petursson
Psychologist, PsyD
Ready to make a change in your life, but not sure where or how to start? Let’s take that first step together. I’m a licensed clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience working with adults who are ready to make meaningful change—but need support getting started. Whether you’re struggling with substance use, chronic pain, anxiety, depression, or just feeling stuck, you don’t have to face it alone. I use proven approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based strategies. I offer ADHD evaluations for adults, with tailored treatment recommendations based on the client's unique needs. I enjoy working with Veterans and college students, I have an extensive background working with substance use issues, and I am certified in CBT for chronic pain.
I focus on creating a supportive, non-judgmental space for adults dealing with a variety of mental health issues. My goal is to help clients explore what’s holding them back and build practical strategies to move forward. Additionally, I endeavor to help my clients feel more grounded, clear, and empowered.
I accept Highmark, Optum, Aetna, and UPMC commercial insurance and I am happy to help with reimbursement for out-of-network clients. Clients are encouraged to contact their insurance company to verify that I am in-network if they would like to use insurance benefits, especially if located outside of Pennsylvania.
