Dr. Evone Zander provides individual therapy for adults and uses evidence-based and mindfulness-based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Her specialties include anxiety-related disorders, mood-related disorders, trauma and trauma-related concerns, workplace stress, and race-based stress. I approach each client with warmth, empathy, flexibility, and supportive accountability. I believe therapy is best when it is a collaborative process that utilizes clients’ strengths to help them live more fulfilled lives and gain deeper comfort with their emotions, enhancing their connection to self and others. Therapy allows people to explore and experiment with new behaviors and perspectives to live a more secure, content, and meaningful life.

Dr. Zander has received specialized training in providing evidence-based Trauma Treatment and enjoys working with individuals to reduce or resolve trauma symptoms and help them gain confidence to continue living fulfilled lives.

She spends her free time traveling, meditating, and spending time outdoors, especially on the water.
