KYLIE STEINHILBER, M.S.
Co-Founder
I am a doctoral candidate in Clinical Psychology. I view health and wellbeing from an intersectional feminist lens. In particular, I am interested in promoting positive body image and eating patterns, improving wellness for those with chronic pain and illness, holistic self-care, health equity and justice, and integrative healthcare. These interests are informed by my own experiences with these issues, which you can learn more about on our blog!

LYNNE-MARIE SHEA, M.S.
Co-Founder
I came to Clinical Psychology from my work as an advocate for victims of violent crime. The work I did helping those had been harmed navigate systems that are supposed to support them sparked in me an interest in examining these systems and working to address them at their roots. My research centers around critical consciousness development and holistic health and wellness.
