She has worked in a variety of settings including a hospital specializing in the treatment of eating disorders, a virtual PHP and IOP for eating disorder recovery, in private practice, and as the Clinical Director for Prosperity Eating Disorders and Wellness Center. Caitlin provides therapy to clients and supervision to clinicians with focus on eating disorder recovery, women's issues, and does so with a trauma-informed and neuro-affirming lens.
