ABOUT ADAM HAMILTON

As co-owner of Oakland Evidence-Based Psychotherapy Clinics, I have worked to create an inviting and comfortable environment in which clients and professional staff can collaborate to address a number of presenting concerns. Our clinicians are trained in a variety of evidence-based treatment methods that have been developed and rigorously researched by some of the the world’s leading experts. We are proud to offer comprehensive Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) along with other evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapies such as Prolonged Exposure for PTSD and Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD. As a licensed psychotherapist, I have experience working with a variety of issues. I believe that change happens when an individual experiences the therapeutic relationship as safe and nonjudgmental. This allows individuals to develop a voice and be heard. I support my clients in accessing their innate motivation to change while assisting them in re-evaluating patterns of thought and behavior that inhibit personal growth. I have been trained in therapeutic practices that are shown to be effective in helping clients to reach their personal goals. My specialties include self-harm and suicidal behavior, behavior change, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, and couples and family therapy. I have been trained in evidenced-based therapies to address self-harm/suicidal behavior, PTSD, and substance use disorders. Additionally, I have 5+ years of healthcare administration experience in the following areas: utilization management; policy/protocol development; provider network management and relations; outcome-based funding model development; contracting and procurement; and program development and implementation.
