Jeffrey L. Brown, Psy.D., ABPP

Harvard Medical School Psychologist
Boston Marathon Psychologist
Author of "The Competitive Edge: How to Win Every Time You Compete"


Biography

Dr. Jeffrey Brown has been on faculty in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and historic McLean Hospital for nearly a decade. In 2002, he was the first psychologist ever named to the Boston Marathon medical team and is also listed on the U.S. Olympic Committee’s Registry of Psychologists. He is board-certified by the American Board of Professional Psychology in Cognitive & Behavioral Psychology and Clinical Psychology.

Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling writes in the afterword of Dr. Brown’s new book, The Competitive Edge, “Jeff’s understanding of how people think and behave, combined with his insight into competition in sport, business, and life, will help you invest in something far greater than you can imagine.”

Dr. Brown’s private practice is located in Arlington, Massachusetts. His clients include academics, corporate leaders, parents, athletes, and kids in school. Dr. Brown’s collaborative style is anchored by cognitive-behavioral theory and interventions which can be useful to clients who are facing a variety of clinical issues such as anxiety and life adjustment concerns or who are taking aim at specific personal goals.

Known for his affable and collaborative style in therapy, Dr. Brown has been cited as an expert in media venues such as the Wall Street Journal, ESPN, FOX News, the New York Times, the Boston Globe, and ABC.com. A warm and humorous presenter, Dr. Brown has been an invited speaker for organizations such as The Mitre Corporation, the esteemed Warner Free Lecture Series, the Boston Health and Fitness Expo, the Massachusetts Psychological Association, Iron Sharpens Iron Men’s Conferences, and multiple Harvard Medical School-sponsored venues.
