Paige Kean

I’ve been a clinician for about five years and recently became an approved supervisor. During my training, I worked with couples, families, and individuals—primarily youths and teens—and pursued opportunities in integrative care, often in underserved communities. In my doctoral program, I specialized in suicidality, focusing on teens, young adults, and adults with self-harm and suicidal thoughts, as well as Anxiety, Depression, and related disorders. Passionate about serving marginalized populations, I expanded community outreach and introduced integrative care where it was lacking. This also inspired me to train other clinicians similarly. I’m committed to mental health work, especially suicide prevention, and hope that my research will contribute to the improvement of behavioral health programs and be disseminated in a way that decreases stigma around mental health.
