About Dr. Brandon

 

Dr. Brandon completed her doctoral education in Clinical Psychology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School and is board-certified in Clinical Psychology.  Licensed in Texas and North Carolina, Dr. Brandon is a Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School and the University of Iowa.  She has extensive experience in working with women experiencing distress across the life span (reproductive cancers, chronic medical conditions or difficult life transitions, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, pregnancy, difficulty conceiving and reproductive assistance, pregnancy or neonatal loss, postpartum, and menopause).  Although she specializes in the treatment of women, Dr. Brandon also uses specific psychotherapies for couples and families.



Dr. Brandon’s interventions target physical health, personal outlooks on life and others, and the available social support system.  Psychotherapy can augment antidepressant medication but is also a "stand-alone" treatment when individuals choose to withdraw or avoid medications while pregnant, breastfeeding, or for other personal reasons.
