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.
