Todd Raymond Avellar

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Accepting clients Last Updated 0 days ago

Multi-State Licensed! I help clients develop mindfulness-based skills to improve focus, confidence, and emotional agency under pressure. My work is helpful for those in high-stakes environments, such as athletes and performers who want to experience psychological “flow” and mindful engagement in their daily lives. I also work well with individuals who want to improve relationship patterns, heal after breakups, navigate career transitions, or who identify as LGBTQ+. Regardless of circumstance, I aim help you enjoy life to its fullest potential.

My style is practical, collaborative, and tailored to the specific demands you face. Whether you are preparing for a critical moment, navigating a high pressure or professional transition, working through relationship challenges, or trying to break through a plateau, we focus on skills you can apply immediately.

Over time, my goal is to help my clients stay present under stress, recover more quickly from setbacks, and respond more effectively in their work and relationships, with clarity and control rather than force or self criticism. I bring over a decade of experience as a psychologist, academic instructor and training director, and clinical supervisor.
