About Dr. Zervas
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with more than 15 years of experience in the field. In addition to providing individual, group, and family psychotherapy to clients, I have experience collaborating with educational institutions on ways to improve their mental health and wellness programming for both students and employees.
I have specialized training in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Parent Management Training and have worked at a variety of institutions across the northeast including urban and rural hospitals, community mental health clinics, private practices, and independent schools.
My current practice focuses on:
Providing psychotherapy services to adolescents and emerging adults
Providing parent/caregiver coaching to those caring for children, teens, and young adults
Consultation services to educational institutions on ensuring their mental health support and wellness offerings are matching their needs
Presenting to schools and professional organizations on a variety of wellness topics
Providing peer supervision to other mental health professionals
My treatment style is individualized, collaborative, problem-focused, and involves the use of a variety of evidence-based practices to address client needs. I also bring warmth, calm open-mindedness, and humor to my therapeutic, consultation, coaching, presentation, and supervision work.
