Dr. Alaina Conner
Born and raised in Georgia, I enjoy living and working in my home state. There is nothing better than providing services and helping your own community who once helped you when you were young. Along with my husband of 18 years, we have two children (ages 9 and 12) who keep us busy. We love spending time with our family and friends!
I am a licensed clinical psychologist (LP) and licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia. I hold specialty training in pediatric neuropsychological assessment. I have also earned PSY-PACT certification to provide tele-health services and assessments to residents across over 40 states. I primarily work with children and adolescents with complex medical conditions, pediatric developmental and behavioral disorders, and autism. Prior to becoming a psychologist, I served as a child therapist in private practice settings and was also a school counselor.
