Dr. Celeste Sangiorgio’s work as an early career psychologist is in the creation, development, and implementation of evidence based care and research in digital therapeutics, particularly games.

As a scientist-practitioner in clinical psychology, my work is focused on:

• Advancing Evidence-Based Care

• Providing patient care

• Advocacy for patient needs

Scientific Advancement of Evidence Based Care

I work as a researcher and specialist in psychometrics to advance available treatments by completing psychological studies to test the effectiveness of healthcare, particularly in digital therapeutics and games designed to teach mental health skills

Providing Patient Care

I provide clinical treatment directly to adults, with a specialty in long-term psychotherapy using integrative orientation, combining 3rd-wave treatments (e.g., Cognitive-Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy), relational and humanistic approaches, and narrative/self-focused treatment models.

Healthcare Advocacy

My work as an educator includes the creation and dissemination of scholarship (e.g., book chapters, research articles) on pathways to receive healthcare (e.g., free clinics, gaming) and workshops and lectures that provide skills and psychoeducation directly to audiences.
