Getting to know Dr. Brian Dragstedt

Dr. Brian Dragstedt is a licensed clinical psychologist in Tampa, Florida, and the founder of South Tampa Psychology. He earned his PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Argosy University. In private practice, he has focused on diagnosing and treating a variety of clinical symptoms, including depression and emptiness, anxiety, and panic. He often evaluates and treats clients who have experienced persistent and varied emotional and cognitive symptoms resulting from long-term relationship traumas and abuse. In fact, he conducted his doctoral dissertation on this subject. Over the years, Dr. Dragstedt has worked with high-risk youth, university students, and adults with severe and persistent psychopathology, as well as those facing day-to-day concerns such as relationship dynamics and workplace stress. Dr. Dragstedt has developed an appreciation for each client's perspective, unique needs, and challenges in treatment. Toward this end, he uses a feedback-informed therapy model, measuring various aspects of treatment and progress toward client-set goals-a combination that research has shown to increase the effectiveness of treatment. He conducts confidential and court-ordered psychological evaluations (testing and assessment) for learning disabilities, ADHD, psychosexual, emotional, and personality functioning; as well as diagnostic clarification for individuals and families, clinicians, schools, courts, and government agencies. Dr. Dragstedt is available for local media appearances and has been featured on Tampa's Fox 13 (WTVT), CBS 10 News (WTSP), Bay News 9, and Associated Press (AP) Radio News. His areas of expertise include relationships, the effects of childhood abuse and relationship trauma, and multicultural issues.
