Dana Nevedal, PhD
Licensed Clinical Psychologist — Albany, NY
Originally from Michigan, I completed my doctoral studies in clinical psychology at Wayne State University in Detroit. Before going into private practice in Albany, I trained and worked at the University of Michigan's Spine Program, West Virginia University's Department of Behavioral Medicine and Psychiatry, VA Connecticut / Yale Department of Psychiatry, and the University at Albany's Counseling and Psychological Services Center. I am a licensed psychologist in New York State.
My clinical work is shaped by that training: direct, structured, and grounded in evidence-based methods — with a focus on the presentations that are hardest to talk about.
My research and publications have focused on chronic pain management, traumatic stress in first responders, medication adherence, and CBT interventions. I am a member of the American Psychological Association (APA), the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science (ACBS), and the International OCD Foundation (IOCDF).
Outside of Work
I grew up in Michigan and have called Albany, NY home for many years now. Outside of work, I spend time in the Adirondacks, Catskills, and Green Mountains across all four seasons (on foot, on horseback, and on skis). I read short stories, support local independent theater, and value time with family and close friends of both the two- and four-legged variety. I also love watching scary movies.
