Meet Dr. Jamie McLaren

Beyond academic credentialing, and over 15 years of experience in the clinical psychology field, a 20 year mentorship weaving holistic mental health and depth psychological theory into the work are foundational experiences that inspire Dr. McLaren's approach. She further pursued clinical positions such as advanced training in comprehensive neuropsychological evaluations; leading expressive arts process groups for adults struggling with trauma, anger, and histories of abuse; creating and leading alternative and mindfulness based programs for at-risk middle and high school aged children; supporting treatment teams in shelters and group homes for children and adults of violence and sexual abuse; and work in an acute crisis unit in a psychiatric hospital for children and teens. Dr. McLaren completed her post-doctoral training in counseling at the Jung Institute of Los Angeles, and had the opportunity to hold assistantships under multiple Jungian analysts certified by the IAAP. Dr. McLaren went on to complete an APA-approved Post-doctoral Fellowship at Reiss-Davis Child Study Center, providing academic, emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and executive functioning assessments for children and teens. Dr. McLaren is qualified to address a full range of client mental-health concerns.
