Elizabeth McCallion (she/her), PhD, Psychologist

Director of CAPS

My journey in mental health began with an interest in mindfulness meditation. Much of my academic career involved studying the impact of meditation on mental and physical health outcomes. I am endlessly fascinated in the mind-body connection and have experience working in various health care settings providing integrated care. I am honored to be able to support such a fantastic team of clinicians in the important work of student mental health.

Favorite professional and self-help books: 
Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat Zinn
