Welcome to my professional blog. I am a Florida Licensed Psychologist and trained scientist-practitioner. In 2008, I received my Ph.D. in clinical psychology. A major component of my professional identity is staying informed about recent developments in the field so that I may provide my clients with scientifically sound information and evidence-based treatment. There is a plethora of information on the internet about eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and psychotherapy. Unfortunately, much of this information is unsubstantiated and some of it is patently false. It is my hope that by sharing my thoughts and opinions on psychological issues, with scientific research and clinical experience sprinkled in for good measure, I can help to bridge the gap between research and treatment.
My name is Dr. Sarah Ravin, and I am a Florida Licensed Psychologist (License # PY 8082). I work primarily with adolescents and young adults who are struggling with eating disorders, body image issues, depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and self-injury. My clinical style is energetic, collaborative, supportive, and empowering.
