“Tory helped me manage my symptoms in a way that I never could have previously imagined. I am now able to feel my feelings in an appropriate way without acting out negatively in an effort to cope with what I was feeling. Thanks to her, I am able to use the necessary skills learned to make it through difficult situations without beating myself up or feeling worthless. I am able to find happiness in the little joys in life as well as feel happiness towards other where I would previously acted out in hatred towards myself for the joy of others. ”

Tory obtained her BA in Psychology from Duke University and completed a post-graduate program at Georgetown University on the Science of Effective Human Development. For graduate school, at The University of Chicago, Tory pursued a dual administrative and clinical advanced degree, which furthered her desire to facilitate change on both macro and micro levels.

In addition to her work as an individual, couples, and group therapist across the whole continuum of care, she has taken on leadership roles in outpatient, partial hospital, and residential treatment settings.
Most recently, Tory was the Clinical Director of a treatment center located in the northern suburbs of Chicago. In this role, she was responsible for developing the clinical program, supervising all clinical staff, and overseeing all operations. Prior to that role, she was the Director of Clinical Training and on the faculty of the Clinical Development Institute of Timberline Knolls, a nationally renowned residential treatment facility for women. Tory was responsible for training the clinicians at Timberline Knolls and gave national presentations on the use of ACT and DBT in the treatment of eating disorders, co-occuring disorders, addictions, and trauma.
