Background

Dr. Thomas Moyer

Welcome to my website. I am a licesnsed psychologist in Maine. I have had a private practice in York, Maine since 1986.

My education, training and experience combine and integrate cognitive, behavioral, and family systems orientations. My perspective is that to create meaningful change in one's life (a shift in one's experience) it is almost always necessary to alter how we think about a problem and alter what we do. In addition, it is usually valuable to understand how we are influenced by the web of relationships in our lives.

My past experiences include working in a psychiatric hospital, mental health clinics, and public schools. I have experience conducting psychological, psychoeducational, and parental capacity evaluations, leading co-parenting workshops for separated/divorced parents, facilitating anxiety support groups, offering presentations on various psychological topics to community groups, and serving on committees of the Maine Psychological Association.

I received a Ph.D. in clinical/school psychology from Hofstra University, an M.A. in psychology from Duquesne University, and a B.A. in psychology from Wake Forest University.

I have board certification as a Diplomate in Cognitive and Behavioral Psychology from the American Board of Professional Psychology. I have a Primary Certificate in Rational-Emotive Therapy from the Institute of Rational-Emotive Therapy (now the Albert Ellis Institute) and a Family Therapy Certificate in family therapy from The Canterbury Group: A Family Therapy Institute. I also did training at the National Training Laboratories in group dynamics.
