I integrate several evidence-based approaches tailored to the unique needs of each client. I utilize Enhanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Eating Disorders (CBT-E), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Feminist Therapy. In addition to eating disorders, I particularly enjoy working with social anxiety, personality disorders, and attachment trauma.
I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Dickinson College before pursuing my Master’s and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (Psy.D) at the University of Indianapolis. During my graduate training, I worked extensively with emerging adults in college counseling and private practice settings. I also completed clinical and research training in eating disorder treatment at the University of Louisville’s Eating Anxiety Treatment Lab. Most recently, I completed my predoctoral internship at North Carolina State University’s Counseling Center, with an area of focus in eating disorders. I am now thrilled to complete my postdoctoral training at EBHA.
Throughout my clinical, research, and dissertation work, I have specialized in weight-inclusive eating disorder treatment. My dissertation explored the impacts of a weight-neutral approach to health, and I received intensive training in CBT-E and other evidence-based treatments for eating disorders at the University of Louisville’s Eating and Anxiety Treatment Lab. I have also presented my research on promoting more weight-inclusive eating disorder care at national and international conferences.
