*I am currently conducting telehealth sessions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.* Dr. Heather Patterson Meyer is a licensed psychologist and served as the Clinical Director of a Binge Eating Disorder treatment program before starting her work in private practice. Heather holds Master’s degrees in Psychology and Theology as well as a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. She is working toward her Certified Eating Disorder Specialist (CEDS) certification through the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals (IAEDP). Heather began her career in university mental health and has served in various roles such as staff psychologist, Eating Disorders Treatment Team Coordinator, and Clinical Director. Heather’s clinical work is grounded in a relational psychodynamic framework that utilizes a warm, caring therapeutic experience as a vehicle to help individuals identify and dissolve obstacles preventing them from moving toward others in healthy relationships. Additionally, she incorporates empirically-supported approaches (including ACT, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, and mindfulness-based interventions) to be flexible and responsive to the unique needs of each person. Heather enjoys working with her clients on relational concerns, including relationship with others, relationship with food, and relationship with themselves.
