After more than a decade working in academic medical centers and clinical research settings, Dr. Taryn Allen founded Bankside Psychology, located in Westport, Connecticut.
Bankside Psychology provides individual therapy, consultations, neuropsychological assessments, and group-based services for children, teens, and adults.
Across services, we offer personalized, compassionate care and help individuals and families harness sources of strength and resilience. Throughout this process, clients are better able to handle and cope with difficult circumstances in a busy world. More specifically, we want to help clients address concerns and make changes that improve quality of life across contexts, including relationships with family or friends, school or work experiences, and overall wellbeing. Implicit to this practice is the belief that each one of us possesses the emotional wherewithal and many of the skills needed to navigate life’s journey; sometimes we just need to gain additional perspective and access workable strategies to move forward.
