ACT/CBS Background and Training: I am honored to be a part of this community, and in awe of its richness. It is important to me to give back. I have been using ACT with youth and adults for over 15 years, and am a peer-reviewed ACT Trainer. I was trained in ACT by Kelly Wilson during my doctoral studies at the University of Mississippi. I am on the Faculty of Harvard Medical School, where I direct the McLean OCD Institute for Children and Adolescents (OCDI Jr.). I am also an Associate Clinical Professor in the APA-Accredited Clinical Psychology Doctoral Program at Suffolk University, where I train my graduate students in ACT/RFT. My research involves ACT-relevant processes in child anxiety and OCD and parenting, as well as treatment research with youth and parents. I am on the Board of the New England ACBS Chapter, where we offer free monthly ACT/RFT trainings open to mental health practitioners and researchers. I am an active trainer and consultant, and have given numerous experiential workshops, seminars, and colloquia on ACT and ACT-related work nationally and internationally. Finally, I have a small private practice in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where I treat children, adolescents, and adults.

ACT/CBS Experience: 15 years

Additional Information: I have a very small private practice in the greater Boston area with an office in Cambridge, and I am available for ACT training and consultation through the New England ACT Institute.
