About Dr. Etzel
Dr. Etzel graduated magna cum laude from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, and received her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Saint Louis University.
Following a clinical internship and postdoctoral fellowship at Duke University School of Medicine, Dr. Etzel joined the staff at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine as an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, where she helped train psychiatry residents and provided outpatient psychotherapy.
In 2012, Dr. Etzel relocated to Atlanta and served as a Consultant for Emory University’s School of Medicine on an NIMH-funded clinical trial, in which she served as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist for depression.
In 2013, she opened her own private practice and has been providing individual and group treatment to older adolescents and adults since that time. Dr. Etzel is passionate about working collaboratively with her clients to establish treatment goals and provide evidence based and effective treatment in a supportive, caring, and non-judging environment.
In her free time, you’ll most likely find her on a tennis court, reading, or cheering on the University of Kansas Jayhawks.
