Dr. Spetter earned her A.B. in Psychology from Wellesley College in 1986 and her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Miami, specializing in Pediatric Health Psychology, in 1991. After interning at the Franciscan Children’s Hospital, she worked at Tufts Medical Center for 10 years consulting with pediatricians and other health professionals and training psychology interns and pediatric and psychiatric residents. She was a founding member, and continues to serve as a consultant to the Comprehensive Family Evaluation Center at Tufts, the only hospital based service providing family forensic psychology services in the Greater Boston area.

Clients, students, and advisees find her warm, engaging, supportive, and genuinely interested in helping them to map out a plan to reach their goals, and then aiding them in breaking the plan into manageable pieces with an action plan that really works.

“She really knows what she is talking about.”

“You don’t always want to hear it, but you know she is right.”

“We have seen lots of psychologists and psychiatrists over the years, but you were the one who really seemed to care about our family, not about the money!”
