Our Licensed Expert

Dr. Clarissa Gosney, PsyD

LICENSED PSYCHOLOGIST (PSY 29633)

“I help children and adults overcome the mountain of anxiety and traumatic experiences that have left them feeling defeated.”

I do this by providing individuals and families the tools they need to conquer anxiety, regardless of where or how it presents itself.  I help my clients face their fears head-on through exposure therapy, while helping them apply the tools they learned in session to help manage their anxiety.  In doing so, they can prove to themselves that many situations are not as frightening as their anxiety makes them seem.  My goal is for my clients to experience the long-term benefits of hands-on therapy where they learn how to conquer life’s mountains without feeling dependent on long-term treatment.

Dr. Gosney specializes in psychological testing and in the treatment of anxiety, trauma, and depression in children and adults. She also specializes in working with clients diagnosed with selective Mutism (SM). 

Dr. Gosney received her Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology (CSPP) at Alliant International University, San Diego.  She has training and experience in evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT).  She also has training and experience in the use of biofeedback therapy to help manage anxiety, depression, and chronic pain.

Prior to her doctoral studies, she obtained her Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy while working as a Special Education teacher and Student Services Coordinator in both public and charter school systems. She has experience in providing individual, couples, and family therapy to clients of all ages.

Dr. Gosney has training and experience in treating Selective Mutism (SM), including having worked as a Counselor at Mighty Mouth, a 4-day intensive therapy program for children with Selective Mutism. In treating her own clients with SM, she uses Parent-Child Interaction Therapy for Selective Mutism (PCIT-SM) skills, CBT, and Exposure. She provides individual and family treatment for children, adolescents, and young adults with Selective Mutism. She also co-leads Outside Voice Selective Mutism camps with Pinnacle.

We aim to provide a relaxing and comfortable experience at our offices
