Raush David A PHD

Welcome to my Clinical Psychology practice. I'd like to share with you a little about my approach to psychotherapy. I approach psychotherapy flexibly by addressing current symptoms, sources of stress, and experiences in the past, as needed. I am very open with my patients about my understanding of their problems and my recommendations for treatment. I do my best to present my conceptualization clearly, and I invite feedback. Based on our shared understanding of the problem, I suggest potential interventions and foci for treatment from a behavioral/cognitive-behavioral perspective for my patients to consider. This collaboration helps to ensure that therapy feels relevant. It acknowledges my respect for the patient and establishes a therapeutic relationship that fosters self-efficacy. I take pride in working well even with patients who have complex situations and who may not have benefited from previous treatment with other professionals.

My Background

I earned my Ph. D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Iowa and completed my Clinical Psychology internship in the Department of Psychiatry at Temple University Medical School. I have presented several times on the treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder at national conferences of the Anxiety and Depression Association of America and the International OCD Foundation. I presented on the treatment of obsessive thinking in several different conditions at an annual convention of the American Psychological Association and an international conference of the Society for the Exploration of Psychotherapy Integration. I have been interviewed by local media regarding anxiety, OCD, and problematic anger and presented on the treatment of problematic anger at a regional conference. A licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, I have been in private practice in southern New Jersey since 2000.
