Trusted Clinical Psychologist Specializing in Individual Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy

Old Saybrook, CT – Dr. Mark D. Aron, PhD, is a seasoned clinical psychologist with decades of experience helping individuals lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. He has worked in a variety of settings—from schools and hospitals to his private practice in Old Saybrook—offering thoughtful, evidence-based care to clients navigating life’s emotional and relational challenges.

Dr. Aron is known for his personalized, compassionate approach in his practice. He helps clients develop healthy habits that support emotional well-being, with a particular focus on the relationship between mental health and behavior. His expertise in hypnotherapy includes work with individuals managing anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, and those seeking to improve their relationship with food.

With his daughter, Allison R. Aron, R.D., a registered dietitian specializing in eating disorders, they collaborate in helping clients achieve balance and wellness through integrated psychological and nutritional guidance.

His psychotherapy and hypnotherapy practice has often helped people who are concerned with anxiety or depressive symptoms, but also provides an adjunct treatment for people with chronic pain conditions involving IBS, headaches, and neuropathy, for example.

 A graduate of Alliant International University in California, Dr. Aron holds a PhD in Clinical Psychology and brings deep expertise in hypnotherapy, mood management, stress reduction, parenting concerns, and relationship dynamics. His practice is rooted in evidence-based methods that promote emotional well-being and help clients navigate the complexities of modern life, from work-related stress to romantic and familial struggles. Dr. Aron’s research and publications have explored the role of hypnosis in enhancing performance among athletes and musicians—an extension of his broader interest in human potential and resilience. 

After more than 40 years in practice, Dr. Aron remains deeply committed to healing. “It continues to be a privilege,” he says, “to help people make meaningful changes in their lives.”

He welcomes clients from across the region who seek effective, empathetic psychological care, and is proud to serve the Old Saybrook community as a trusted and experienced mental health professional.
