She works with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. She attained her Master’s and Doctoral degrees in Counseling Psychology from the Ohio State University, where she conducted research on anxiety/motivation and therapeutic humor, and began her work in the burgeoning epidemic of eating disorders on college campuses for both her predoctoral internship (1985-86, Ohio State University Counseling and Consultation Service) and her postdoctoral internship (1987-88, Ohio Wesleyan Counseling and Advising Center). She has been board licensed in the state of Arizona since 2005. She also is licensed as a psychologist in Massachusetts (1997), Florida (1989), and Ohio (1988)—and she is certainly not thinking about EVER moving again.
