I am an experienced clinical psychologist with faculty appointments at McLean Hospital and Harvard Medical School. I'm the senior eating disorders consultant at the Pavilion Program at McLean Hospital.
I graduated Phi Beta Kappa with Honors in Psychology from Bucknell University and completed both my Master's and Doctoral degrees at Ohio University. I also completed my pre and post-doctoral fellowships at McLean Hospital/Harvard Medical School. With 24 years of experience in private practice, I have treated teens, adults, and families through group and individual psychotherapy, as well as provided consultation services.
Teaching and Clinical Consultation in Eating Disorders
I have taught psychology courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Currently, I serve as the Senior Eating Disorders Consultant for the Pavilion Program at McLean Hospital. I also provide consultation and training workshops to various area hospitals and residential treatment programs. I regularly supervise psychology interns and post-doctoral fellows at McLean's Klarman Eating Disorders Program. Additionally, I was the former Clinical Coordinator of McLean's Adult Eating Disorders Specialty Track within the Behavioral Health Partial Program.
Research, Presentations, and Media Expertise
I present and lecture at professional conferences, universities, and secondary schools. I am involved in publishing research related to eating disorders, as well as training and supervision. I have also been a media consultant on the topic of eating disorders for Marie Claire magazine and WBZ News, Boston. I am a member of both The Academy of Eating Disorders and the Massachusetts Multiservice Eating Disorders Association.
