On this episode of Food Allergy Talk, I welcome Dr. Elizabeth Hawkins.

ABOUT DR. HAWKINS:

Elizabeth has spent the past 20+ years helping individuals, families, and communities develop and practice greater psychological flexibility and resilience. Educated at the University of Washington and UC Berkeley, she has a broad base of training in cognitive-behavioral therapies, attachment theory, family systems, indigenous health, and multicultural feminist therapies. She is a licensed psychologist in Washington and Oregon and under the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT), she is able to practice telepsychology in at least 41 additional states.

Elizabeth enjoys working with food allergy families to strengthen skills and strategies for living full, meaningful lives while balancing health and safety concerns. In addition to her training and expertise as a licensed psychologist, she has 15 years of lived experience as a food allergy parent and advocate. Her daughter has had allergies to more than twenty different foods, including seven of the nine top allergens, plus environmental allergies, eczema, and asthma. She has experience with SCIT, SLIT, and OIT and is the co-author of the book Treating Food Allergies with Modern Medicine.
