Dr. Katrina Kuzyszyn-Jones (Kuzyszyn rhymes with musician, so pronounced koosician) holds a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, a Master's in Forensic Psychology, and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Women's Studies. Dr. Kuzyszyn-Jones is experienced in forensic evaluations, psychological testing, individual and group therapy, and crisis management. She has extensive treatment experience with adults, college students, and adolescents, and works with individuals, couples, and families. She has been serving clients in a variety of settings for the past ten years. VISIT HER WEBPAGE at www.lepageassociates.com/html/katrina.html.

Dr. Kuzyszyn-Jones has extensive specialized experience in psychological and educational assessment, and conducts comprehensive evaluations for AD/HD, learning disorders, personality factors, psychological and emotional functioning, substance abuse assessments, and suicide risk assessments.

Her forensic experience includes consultation, assessment, and treatment in family, civil, and criminal law matters. Dr. Kuzyszyn-Jones has specialized skills to address a variety of forensic issues, including forensic/court-ordered evaluation such as child custody evaluations, parental competency evaluations, criminal competency evaluations, risk assessment evaluations, sexual offender evaluations, and malingering assessments. Her therapeutic work with teenagers has involved one of her special interest areas of delinquency diversion for teens beginning to act out, and she is involved in criminal justice diversion for teens and adults. Additionally, she is certified as a Parent Coordinator.

Her clinical experience in treating adults and teens spans the breadth of mental health issues, to include working with individuals who are coping with common daily stressors and life challenges or transitions, as well as those problems that arise from interpersonal and family conflict such as relationship conflict, divorce, adjusting to college, substance abuse, and LGBT issues. In addition, Dr. Kuzyszyn-Jones specializes in working with people coping with severe and persistent mental illness, to include their family members. This encompasses a wide range of illnesses such as bipolar disorder, major depression, generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and borderline and antisocial personality disorders. She is trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), commonly used to treat Borderline Personality Disorder.

On a personal note: I apply many of the coping skills I teach to clients on a daily basis. I practice mindfulness exercises on a daily basis and yoga at least three times a week. I try to live a balanced life to include healthy sleeping and eating habits, exercise, and time spent with family, friends, and alone. I enjoy scrapbooking and am part of both a cooking and book group. I try to volunteer some time by speaking for local groups like the National Alliance on Mental Illness and Crisis Intervention Training with police officers. As I find working with undergraduate and graduate students particularly rewarding, in addition to my clinical work, I also teach university students.

Dr. Kuzyszyn-Jones offers services in the areas of: therapy for clinical/mental health concerns for adolescents and adults; psychoeducational/psychological evaluations for all ages; extensive forensic evaluation services; separation and divorce to include child specialist consultation; and marital conflict and divorce. Please visit my website for more detailed information at WWW.LEPAGEASSOCIATES.COM.

PRACTICE/INTERVENTIONS STYLE AND OFFICE/SITE RESOURCES:
Style: I was trained in an integrative therapy model to include psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, family systems, and experiential theories and techniques, all of which I use in providing therapeutic services for a wide variety of life challenges, to address the unique needs of each client. Each client brings a very personal and individual set of needs and desires to the experience of therapy. I am sensitive to these personal factors while helping my clients identify and focus on the specific problems that are affecting them in their current daily lives. Site: In addition having excellent central accessibility to the Triangle, the location has many other benefits as well. I have outdoor therapy space so we can sit outdoors or go for a walk if you wish. I also have a host of accommodations for the adolescents and families I serve! In addition to a compilation of age-appropriate therapeutic games and activities, I have a game room with a pool table and a media room.

INFORMATION ON FREE INITIAL CONSULTATION:
I recognize when choosing a psychologist - whether for yourself, your family, or your company - it will be important for you to feel the professional you choose will be a "good fit." Finding the right psychological services provider is a unique task, as this person will generally be addressing very personal issues with you, your family, or your employees. It can be daunting to worry that as part of your quest to find the right psychologist to meet your needs, you may perhaps pay for one or more sessions with people who don't turn out to be a good fit. As a professional courtesy, to help make your search for the right psychological services provider easier, I will not charge you for the initial session if you feel that it is not a good fit. In fact, if I am not a good fit for you, I will be happy to talk with you about what you're looking for, and give you the names of other psychologists that fit your description. If you decide that I am a good fit and to use my services, only then will I charge you for the first session. If at the end of the first session you still have other appointments set up in your search for a psychologist, I will not charge you then, and will instead bill for the first session only if you decide that I am a good fit and return to use my services. I hope that this policy makes your search for the right psychological services provider a bit easier.
