My professional voyage has traversed healthcare, the realm of workers' compensation, and the corridors of education, all of which have endowed me with a rich tapestry of skills. I’m Kathryn Calcaterra, PhD, a clinical psychologist specializing in the art of healing. I focus on patients who grapple with the weight of chronic pain, dance with the shadows of anxiety and depression, and bear the scars of trauma. I typically treat adults and elders (65+), often who have a physical injury followed by an emotional sequela of chronic pain. I also treat patients struggling with anxiety and depression. I am specialized in treating patients within the workers’ compensation arena, and family members struggling with depression associated with the possible deportation of a close family member. I treat all patients with unconditional positive regard and create an environment of comfort and acceptance. I weave a mosaic of individual and group therapy, guiding others toward effective communication, illuminating the path of career choices, and aiding in the delicate realm of pain management. In this mosaic, I also devote myself to parent education, meticulous assessment, the world of forensics, and the artistry of report writing.
