Dr. Megan Tomlinson is a clinical psychologist with specialized experience in the assessment and treatment of trauma, moral injury, suicide risk, and sleep disorders. Before entering private practice, she provided psychological care to veterans and active-duty service members through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the U.S. Air Force. Her clinical perspective is further informed by research in trauma, moral injury, and suicide risk.
Her approach is grounded in psychological science, evidence-based treatment, and careful attention to the individual rather than a diagnosis alone. Her experience as a military spouse also contributes to a practical understanding of military and national security communities and the importance of trust and discretion when seeking care. While particularly well suited to national security professionals and others navigating high-stress environments, her practice welcomes adults from a range of backgrounds seeking thoughtful, evidence-based psychological care.
