Hello, I'm Dr. Kylie Pottenger and I own and operate A New Day Psychology. With over 14 years of experience and more than a decade as a licensed psychologist, I have been refining the art and science of therapy for a long time! I use a client-centered and collaborative approach to identify and build on your strengths with the goals of healing, personal growth, and increased overall wellness.
My clinical passions are infertility, perinatal mental health, trauma, OCD, grief and loss, major life transitions, and issues related to spirituality, such as: religious trauma, deconstructing fundamentalist views, religious doubt or shame, or changes in faith or religious beliefs.
I'm a survivor of infertility, pregnancy loss, and traumatic birth and find it fulfilling to help others through these struggles. I'm a certified Perinatal Mental Health Provider and have advanced training for this population, infertility, and assisted reproductive technologies (IVF, IUI, Reciprocal IVF, etc). I am also trained in EMDR, often used with trauma, grief, depression and anxiety, and ERP, the gold standard for OCD.
Outside of work, I’m mom to two boys. I’m a dreamer always welcoming adventure. Currently, to relax I enjoy time with loved ones, reading, roller skating, traveling, Legos, and being in nature. I look forward to hearing what makes you excited and to help you reach your own dreams.
In therapy together, I will create a custom treatment plan to best suit your needs; however, approaches I tend to utilize include the following:
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)
- The Flash Technique
- Emotional Freedom Technique
- Motivational Interviewing (MI)
- Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT)
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)
- Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)
- Person-Centered
- Strengths-based
- Mindfulness
