Dr. Elizabeth Moroney is a child and adolescent psychologist at Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago. She holds an undergraduate degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and completed a two-year postbaccalaureate fellowship at the National Institute of Mental Health where she got her start in clinical research with children and families, working on a multi-site twin study examining transdiagnostic markers of anxiety. She went on to complete her graduate training in Clinical Psychology at UCLA, benefitting from several clinical externships across settings in Los Angeles in addition to research training in the ADHD and Development lab under Dr. Steve Lee. Her predoctoral internship was at Stanford Children's Hospital and the Children's Health Council in the Bay Area and her two-year postdoctoral fellowship focused on pediatric OCD, anxiety, and tic disorders under Dr. Avital Falk at Weill Cornell Medical Center/New York Presbyterian Hospital. At Lurie, she treats children with OCD, complex anxiety, and tic disorders, as well as related conditions. She draws flexibly from several evidence-based approaches but relies most heavily on cognitive behavioral therapy including exposure and response prevention, as well as the Supportive Parenting in Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) protocol. In addition to individual therapy with children and parents, Dr. Moroney employs both intensive and group work for complex anxiety and OCD presentations. She is working to develop a clinical research program at Northwestern and has presented work at national and international conferences and has published in several peer-reviewed journals. Her research interests are focused on the clinical populations she serves; she is also interested in the use of technology in disseminating evidence-based skills as a means for improving the vast need for mental health services in youth.
