Garrett Pollert, Ph.D.
Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in using evidence based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, to treat a range of disorders. I have expertise in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and adult eating disorders, but I have experience treating a wide range of mental health concerns.
My practice is primarily teletherapy. I am licensed in Oklahoma and Utah, and Psypact Enabled, which allows me to conduct teletherapy in over 35 additional states.
