Alec Baker, PsyD

Dr. Baker has been in practice since 2011 after earning his Masters and PsyD in Clinical Psychology from the Graduate School of Professional Psychology at the University of Denver. His practice focuses on helping individuals and families leverage their strengths to live their best lives in the face of adversity. Dr. Baker focused his training on sport and family issues which has remained a primary area of interest and expertise since founding his private practice in 2011. He particularly enjoys working with adolescent (6th grade and up) athletes who are looking to improve both their mental health and their performance. Dr. Baker also enjoys working with individual adults, couples and whole families. Clinical focus areas include mood disorders, anxiety disorders, relationship concerns, and issues related to divorce and coparenting. Dr. Baker supports individual adolescents and adults who are going through the process of separation/divorce and also provides co-parent coaching for coparents who are looking to establish a business-like relationship for the benefit of their children. Dr. Baker has an integrative clinical style that incorporates self-psychological, cognitive behavioral and family systems theories into nearly all of his work. He also appreciates the contributions of existential/humanistic and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy concepts to his work. This is a strengths based approach that accepts deficits, but does not surrender to them.
