Introduction

Our brain and our gut communicate with one another through the enteric nervous system which can contribute to experiences of GI symptoms. In turn difficult physical symptoms can have an impact on our mood which can become a difficult cycle to break. Utilizing evidenced based GI Psychology interventions I work with clients to help them attain relief from their symptoms by addressing the mind-gut connection and through attaining the skills they need to thrive alongside their GI condition. Even with the same diagnoses, no two people are the same, and problems do not fit neatly in individual boxes which is why I approach each client by understanding them as a whole person to provide highly individualized evidenced based care. As people who live whole, full lives I also work with clients on the challenges that can arise in life and are impacted by GI symptoms such as work/career, friendships and relationships. I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Memphis. I completed my Health Psychology residency at Froedtert and the Medical College of Wisconsin and my postdoctoral fellowship in Adult Clinical and Health Psychology at the Marshfield Clinic. I then worked as the Director of Behavioral Health in Digestive Diseases at Yale before moving to Massachusetts to continue my work with patients who are coping with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. I am licensed to practice in MA, CT and can see patients in outside of these states via PSYPACT. I offer sessions in the evenings and on weekend mornings. I am able to conduct gut-directed clinical hypnotherapy via telehealth.
