Dr. Blair’s mission as a licensed clinical psychologist is multi-faceted. She strives to create a culture that promotes overall wellness, strives for excellence, fosters emotional health, and supports collaboration. The goal of this mission is to cultivate healthy, integrity-focused lifestyles that are rich and rewarding.
What Makes Dr. Blair Different From Other Psychologists?
Dr. Blair believes in cultivating deep interpersonal connections through a collaborative approach to emotional well-being. As part of this approach, Dr. Blair sets “SMART” objectives. This means the goals that she works to set with her clients are:
- Specific
- Measurable
- Attainable
- Realistic
- Time-bound
Dr. Blair realizes there is no one-size-fits-all approach to setting goals with her clients, which is why she takes the time to understand their unique circumstances and the role the circumstances play in the context of the patient’s life. The result is a shared vision for developing effective treatment objectives. As a doctor, performance coach, and educator, this collaborative approach and the deep connections fostered are the most rewarding aspects of her practice.

What Factors Affect Patient Progress?
As with any other form of physical or mental wellness programs, the services which Dr. Blair provides rely on a strong rapport, therapeutic alliance, transparency, compliance with treatment, and a true commitment to change. Fully surrendering to the process, allowing vulnerability, and forfeiting defense mechanisms are key to patient progress.
It is important to understand that true change is not an overnight process and it is not entirely linear. Rather, progress can be seen as a thousand small, but intentional, decisions that correlate to create a renewed vision and transformed life. Perseverance is essential, and Dr. Blair is here to help patients successfully navigate the landscape of their treatment.
