About

Dede O’Shea, Ph.D.
Psychologist

I’m Dr. Dede O’Shea, the founder of Brain and Mind Consulting. Based in the Boston area, I’m a licensed and board certified psychologist and neuropsychologist, and a faculty member at UMass. My expertise is in how the health of the brain and mind affect how we best live, get work done, and create positive relationships. Much of my work focuses on cognitive and mental health evaluations, and evidence-based care for people with concerns about attention, memory, concussions and brain function, and emotional stress, and I have published multiple research and educational articles in these areas.

In my work in clinics to academic medical centers, I have many people approaching me, and they are often motivated and knowledgeable, but in need of more resources and support about brain and mental health, emotional trauma, career, and relationship issues. I also work with professionals and organizations on these areas. Brain and Mind Consulting is a space to enhance health, knowledge, and achievement.

My education includes undergraduate studies in psychology and neuroscience at Princeton, a doctorate degree in clinical psychology at Penn State, and a neuropsychology fellowship at UCLA.  As a professional, I’ve served in the leadership of national psychology and neuropsychology organizations.
