Dr. Maureen Lyon (Clinical Health Psychologist)
Background
I use variety of techniques, interventions, and processes
that build on your strengths, so that you can develop the skills necessary to live the life you envision.
I have earned the highest level of credentialing possible
for a psychologist from the American Board of
Professional Psychology as a Health Psychologist. I am
highly skilled in treating individuals with medical
illnesses, such as eating disorders and fibromyalgia. I am
a Board Member of the Washington Area Society for the
Study of Eating Disorders and Obesity, a member of the
Multiple Sclerosis Society, as well as other professional
organizations.
I graduated from the American University (AU) in Clinical
Psychology in 1990. My training at AU integrated the use
of both cognitive-behavioral and interpersonal psychotherapy techniques.
My work as a certified yoga teacher provides an
additional perspective on integrating the mind and body
for healing. I also have a Masters degree in History. I am a former junior high school teacher of English, History and Science and continue to enjoy providing educational and psychological assessments.
