Her approach is direct and no-nonsense: skip the fluff, focus on results. She uses CBT, ACT, and lifestyle and nutrition recommendations to optimize mental health — and her goal is always to keep you flying.

A note on diagnosis: Because this is a private pay, out-of-network practice, you are never required to have a diagnosis to receive care. Dr. Powell is clinically rigorous — if you don't qualify for one, you won't receive one. Your records stay between you and your provider. No employer, no airline, no FAA.
