The Center for Anxiety and Behavioral Change strongly affirms the importance of empirical evidence serving as the foundation of knowledge that informs public policy and individual treatment decisions. We strongly support the statements of the American Psychological Association, American Psychiatric Association, and American Association of Pediatrics and urge all in power to adopt an approach to Autistic people and their families rooted in compassion and understanding that asserts that people of all neurotypes deserve a discussion informed by evidence rather than conjecture, and facts rather than feelings

We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Do as a postdoctoral fellow to CABC. She will be working out of the McLean office. Please read more about Dr. Do below:

Dr. Quyen Do (she/her) is a postdoctoral fellow in clinical psychology. She earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology from Yale University, a postbaccalaureate intramural research training fellowship from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and a joint doctorate in clinical and developmental psychology from the University of Pittsburgh. She completed her predoctoral clinical internship at the Duke University Medical Center, where she primarily worked with youth and their families as well as emerging adults by providing wide-ranging intervention and assessment services.

Dr. Do places great emphasis on using evidence-based approaches to her clinical services. In practice, Dr. Do strives to conduct a thorough intake to guide thoughtful treatment planning. However, her values in upholding cultural humility and client empowerment also create ample space for clinician-client collaboration to inform treatment goals and progress.

Dr. Do’s expertise ranges from using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills, exposure and response prevention (ERP), and behavioral parent management training (PMT) to treat various anxiety disorders, depression and self-injurious behaviors, avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Her experience in family and couples therapy may also be utilized to help clients meet their goals. Additionally, Dr. Do has a strong assessment background that includes neuropsychological testing and ADHD evaluations. Dr. Do is also fluent in Vietnamese and offers intervention services to Vietnamese-speaking clients.

In her free time, Dr. Do enjoys trying new food/drinks in the DMV, finding new plants to bring home, and cuddling with her cats. Dr. Do can be reached at at drdo@changeanxiety.com.
