Naomi McKenzie Greene, PsyD

I've always loved a good story, and what is therapy about if not the story of each of us as individuals? Maybe yours includes parts you don't quite understand, worries that spill into other areas of your life, low points, or serious traumas, or a section that just isn't going the way you thought it would. The way I do therapy is a journey of exploring and seeking out a deeper understanding to help you find strength and clarity. I hold a doctorate in clinical psychology from William James College, specializing in child and family psychology. My clinical expertise is in working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), identity issues, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), and other stressors. I draw on modalities of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), narrative therapy, and family systems. I am a clinical psychologist seeing individual clients in navigating life transitions, stress, identity issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other challenges. I operate from orientations of liberation, social justice, racial justice, empowerment, feminism, and cultural respect. Any point in your life can be a moment of realization—a point when something feels out of place, and you're driven to explore and question what you know and understand about yourself and the world at large. These are the moments when I join clients in support of them reaching deeper cohesion in how they want to experience themselves and move through the world. I hope we can work together to create a little more ease in your life, so that you feel empowered to Walk Good on the next part of your journey!

In Jamaica, where I'm from, there is an old benediction, given when seeing someone off on their journey - a way of wishing them well: "Walk Good" In my therapy practice, my goal is to get to know you, to understand where you've been, and to support you in finding where you want to go. With an advocate who is fiercely empowering and compassionate, you will grow the strength to Walk Good toward the things that are meant for you.
