Who are your clinicians?
Our team of licensed psychologists represent a range of theoretical orientations and training specializations. Each therapist brings a deep commitment to the science and art of psychotherapy, and all have received doctorates and undergone extensive training accredited by the American Psychological Association.
While we may use somewhat different approaches, each therapist at Kendall Psychological Associates is committed to the principle of respect for our clients, and each therapy proceeds with non-judgmental careful listening, warmth, and professionalism.
Clients in psychotherapy at KPA may also be referred to our staff psychiatrist, Dr. Wendy Reiser, DO. Dr. Reiser uses a psychodynamic approach in combination with psychopharmacologic treatment. Dr. Reiser received her medical degree from the New York College of Osteopathic Medicine. She is also a Staff Psychiatrist on the Psychopharmacology team in the Outpatient Department at Cambridge Health Alliance, and is a Clinical Instructor in Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
