Clinical and Consulting Psychology Practice of Dr. Bruce Poulsen
I have over 30 years of experience providing evidence-based psychological services focused on improving relationships, personal fulfillment, and a sense of well-being. My practice is located in Salt Lake City, Utah, and I see patients in person or virtually through telepsychology (if you live outside of Utah). Visit my Psychology Today page to check if I am currently accepting new patients. You can also contact me directly regarding availability.

SERVICES
ASSESSMENT
I see patients of all ages for diagnostic testing and evaluation. Such assessments are often needed to diagnose learning or neurodevelopmental disorders, autism spectrum disorders, general intellectual abilities, personality functioning, or specific mental health conditions. I also provide consultations to primary care physicians, school officials, court personnel, and other professionals.
PSYCHOTHERAPY
​
Psychotherapy is a relational form of treatment that provides psychological healing by increasing a sense of well-being and reducing discomfort and distress. My approach is evidence-based and grounded in contemporary psychodynamic theory and research. Psychological distress is often related to habitual ways of perceiving and interacting with the world--ways that have protected and helped in the past, but now get in the way of living a more satisfying, enjoyable, and meaningful life.
CONSULTATION
My practice also includes consultation at individual, group, and organizational levels. I can provide consultation to educational, business, and nonprofit organizations. Such consultation includes assessing fitness for duty among employees, providing psychological expertise in business strategy and innovation, and promoting a more psychological healthy workplace. Please contact me for more information about this aspect of my practice.
