Clinical Expertise

Dr. Hudson provides evidence-based therapy for children and adults, offering expertise in treating anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, ADHD, and trauma-related concerns, as well as challenges involving life transitions, safety planning, and emotional regulation. His practice is built on a foundation of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, Exposure Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Guided by each client’s unique lived experience and personal values, he utilizes these interventions to help individuals build insight and recognize patterns as they navigate their symptoms. This collaborative approach is grounded in a commitment to meeting clients where they are, helping them understand their current ways of thinking and behaving while providing the practical tools needed for meaningful, long-term change.

Dr. Hudson is an exposure therapist for the Intensive CBT Program for Anxiety and OCD, a 2-week accelerated treatment program that provides concentrated individual CBT and exposure therapy to adults and adolescents with OCD, social anxiety, panic disorder, agoraphobia, health anxiety, and specific phobias.

Diversity Statement

Dr. Hudson is dedicated to providing a compassionate, inclusive, and affirming space for all individuals. He recognizes that every individual carries a unique set of lived experiences, the intersections of which can often involve specific complexities, and he strives to honor these nuances to ensure every client feels truly supported and empowered. Furthermore, he is passionate about serving underrepresented groups, addressing systemic challenges, and fostering recovery from identity-based trauma.

Training

Dr. Hudson earned his PsyD from William James College and completed his predoctoral internship at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. His clinical foundation was built across a broad range of settings, including community mental health centers, university counseling, hospitals, and private practice. These diverse environments allowed him to refine his approach and integrate evidence-based practices for individuals navigating a wide spectrum of life’s challenges.

Drawing on his own experience as a former D1 college-athlete, Dr. Hudson has a personal interest in the psychological factors that drive performance and persistence. His doctoral research explored how physical disciplines like weightlifting contribute to the character strength of grit, and how that resilience can be leveraged to improve overall psychological well-being. This specialized background allows Dr. Hudson to blend traditional clinical interventions with practical strategies for building endurance and mental fortitude.
