Kaylin Golerkansky, PsyD

Psychologist

"As a licensed clinical psychologist, I work with children and teens to identify their strengths and challenge their mental health struggles. While I have experience using many treatment modalities, I rely on an eclectic toolkit of attachment-based work, emotion focused therapy, and trauma-informed care to tailor treatment to each client's specific needs. Throughout my doctoral training, I explored the world while providing trauma-informed care to foster and orphaned children and teens in Honduras and Samoa. I have also worked in psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment, and within the foster care system. I have found that each client can tell their own story of courage, hope, loss, love, and faith. I feel privileged to witness the resilient spark of the human spirit in each of these clients. Through my work, I hope to help others can gain a sense of purpose and joy that makes their life worth living to the fullest."
