About Me
Dr. Haight has 8 years of clinical experience
working with adolescents, adults and older adults.
 


CLINICAL INTERESTS:  I am deeply interested in a wide range of psychological issues and I continue to study and seek advanced training in my field.  Much of my experience and training has centered around working with the following. 
  • Adult depression, including bi-polar depression
  • Panic attacks or acute anxiety (specialty area)
  • Working with teens and their parents
  • The needs of mothers of special-needs children
  • Working with adult caregivers of their elderly parents
  • Men's issues focused on career or relationship stagnation 


TRAINING: 
Dr. Haight received her doctorate in Professional Psychology (PsyD) from the George Washington University in Washington, DC and her Bachelor of Arts degree from Washington University in St. Louis.  She is licensed as a Clinical Psychologist in the Commonwealth of Virginia and the District of Columbia.  Dr. Haight completed her internship at the American University Counseling Center in Washington, DC.  Her advanced training consisted of treating adolescents and adults across the lifespan, couples, conducting group therapy and providing supervision to clinical trainees.  Dr. Haight provided numerous workshops on managing stress, relaxation training, conflict resolution, and gaining emotional intelligence. 


SPECIALIZED SERVICES: 

Guided Meditation
Dr. Haight is trained in guided meditation and tailors meditations to a client's specific needs.  Guided meditation and relaxation training has been shown to be an effective intervention for chronic illness or pain, acute stress and
post traumatic stress disorder. 

Life Review
Dr. Haight also conducts a brief therapy known as "Life Review" that is tailored to the needs of mature adults, especially those in transition.  If you consider yourself an "empty nester," or are approaching retirement and beyond, this 8-week series may be for you.  It is a wonderful introduction to therapy if you've never tried it,
and can lay a strong foundation for later work if you desire. 
Life Review has been shown to address depression, stress and
adjustment issues for adults in later transitions.
