Current Projects

Current Grant Funded Projects 

We are currently implementing a transdiagnostic cognitive behavioral treatment protocol for eating disorders and co-occurring conditions with regional community mental health centers, in partnership with Dr. Christy Esposito-Smythers and Dr. Amanda Sanchez at GMU.  Our training and intervention was piloted and revised with feedback from community mental health clinicians and adolescents in the community. This project is funded by a grant to Dr. Fischer from the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Office on Women’s Health.

We are also adapting a cognitive behavioral treatment for Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder for use in community mental health settings with our colleagues at Massachusetts General Hospital. This project is funded by the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA).
