Overview

Licensed Psychologist

Supriya Williamson received her PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Virginia Curry School of Education where she was trained to provide evidenced-based treatments through both psychotherapy and assessment. Supriya’s training gave her the opportunity to work with children, families, and individuals in both inpatient and outpatient settings including University of Virginia Hospital’s Family Stress Clinic. There, she provided individual and family therapy to refugees as well as low-income and under-resourced populations. Her prior experience also includes work with youth in juvenile detention centers as well as facilitating mentoring groups for at-risk early adolescent girls. Supriya completed her APA-accredited pre-doctoral internship at the Terry Children’s Center in Delaware, where she helped children and families facing a variety of mental health challenges including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic distress disorder, as well as other behavioral and educational problems.

When treating children and adolescents, Supriya understands the importance of the entire family system, as well as the school, peer group, and community influences that contribute to a client’s success. With this in mind, Supriya believes in collaborative and integrative care and will consult with teachers, other professionals, and physicians as needed to provide holistic care to each client. Supriya also enjoys working with parents to provide guidance and support around a variety of issues related to raising healthy children and adolescents. In addition, Supriya works with couples in order to improve communication and support effective problem-solving within their relationships. Supriya brings a strengths-based and collaborative approach to her practice of therapy and pulls from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and family systems theory.

Supriya is licensed in Pennsylvania and New York and is PSYPACT certified.
