Jack Tsan
(He/Him/His)
Psychologist
Specialist in the area of anxiety, OCD, and men's health.
I received my doctorate in Counseling Psychology at the University of Houston and published in the area of health behavior and men and masculinity. After my doctorate, I completed a clinical research post-doctoral fellowship and produced several research papers and funded grants pertaining to mental health service delivery, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Shortly after completion of the post-doctoral fellowship, I was hired by the Department of Veterans Affairs to run from the ground up, their Primary Care Mental Health Integration program, at an outpatient clinic. Since then, I’ve taken on roles as the Evidenced-Based Psychotherapy coordinator and Primary Care Mental Health Integration trainer for the entire Central Texas Veterans Healthcare System. Given my experience, I have had the opportunity to treat a variety of anxiety and anxiety-related health problems.
