Vincenzo Roma, PhD Clinical Psychologist
Empowering Hopeful Transformations for Men and Women
Treatments for Mental Fitness
WELCOME
Dr. Vincenzo Roma is the top-notch Clinical Psychologist you need to tackle any mental health issue, no matter how mild or complex. With expertise and compassionate approach he can help you overcome the most challenging obstacles and achieve your mental wellness goals.
My Approach
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
I prioritize teaching gold-standard interventions and deliver cutting-edge, impactful treatments with the highest standards. My aim is for clients to feel they are receiving the best possible care - one that identifies sources of hope and creates a practical plan to strengthen it. Therapy begins by curiously investigating what is keeping them stuck, then developing a confident plan to get unstuck. Ultimately, my goal is to empower clients to become their own therapists.
Mental Health Evaluations
As a mental health professional with a background in fitness for duty evaluations for the military, I have developed a unique expertise in providing comprehensive mental health evaluations. My experience has also given me the ability to communicate complex information in a way that protects the individual but still meets the screening requirements of law enforcement and first responders. Trust me to provide thorough and effective evaluations for your mental health needs.
Skill Building
In therapy, the key to success lies in prioritizing the development of practical skills that can be readily applied in everyday life. This can be achieved though structured sessions that encompass teaching, homework assignments, and the challenging of patterns.
