Francesca A. St. Pe, MA

I am an O'Grady Resident in Psychology for 2026-2027 on the acute care track and am completing my PhD at the University of Cincinnati in clinical psychology under the mentorship of Dr. Cathy Stough. Our research seeks to develop both prevention and intervention efforts to promote healthy lifestyles, including healthy eating behaviors and physical activity, from infancy through late adolescence. My clinical interests focus primarily on the treatment of eating disorders and disordered eating behaviors in youth. These interests are rooted in elevating patient and family voices through qualitative methodologies and understanding the relationship between behaviors such as emotional eating and disordered eating habits. I am passionate about research, clinical and advocacy efforts that support Latine and Hispanic communities.
