PSYCHOLOGIST/FOUNDER/CEO

Dr. Colleen Long, Psy.D.

I am an entrepreneur at heart, but I somehow stumbled upon a PsyD along the way. Clarity is the love child of my passion for innovative clinical care and invention. I live in a little slice of paradise in Orange County, California, and have boy/girl twins, Izzy & Cole, and an Irish triplet, Crosby. My first baby is Boodah (our corporation’s namesake), and my four-legged 14-year-old Labradoodle. I looooooove all things technology and am geeking out with the state of AI at the moment and how it can further improve mental health care.
