Dr. Laura Frame

Howdy! I am Dr. Laura Frame and am both a Licensed Psychologist and a Licensed Specialist in School Psychology (LSSP). Prior to returning to school for my doctorate, I practiced in the schools for over a decade with my master’s degree in school psychology from Texas Woman’s University. While working as an LSSP in central Texas schools, I developed an interest in supporting students with mental health concerns in the classroom and advocating for disability supports and services.

​

I earned my doctoral degree at Texas A&M University with a focus on clinical child and adolescent psychology. I completed a school-based mental-health doctoral internship through the Psychological and Social Services Department in the Dallas Independent School District. I completed my postdoctoral residency at the APACenter in Austin, Texas.

​

Throughout my career and training, I have provided interventions for children, adolescents, and young adults. Given my extensive background in education as well as working in community mental health and hospital settings, I have served children and families from diverse settings; therefore, I am able to assist individuals and families presenting with a wide range of concerns.  My intervention experience encompasses a variety of challenges including learning difficulties, autism spectrum disorders, developmental delays, depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, attention disorders, and other health impairments. I have specialized training in:

• Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT)

• Solution-focused therapy (SFT)

• Behavioral consultation

• Parent management training (PMT)

• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)

• Trauma-focused cognitive behavior therapy (TF-CBT)

• Mindfulness-based interventions

• Crisis intervention

• Pediatric eating disorders

• Childhood grief

• Feedback informed treatment

• ADHD coaching and parent training

Additionally, I have extensive experience and training in completing comprehensive psychological evaluations for children, adolescents, and young adults.
