Berman, Noah
Assistant in Psychology, Massachusetts General Hospital
Instructor in Psychology, Harvard Medical Center

Noah Berman is a clinical psychologist who received his undergraduate degree from Bowdoin College and my MA and PhD degrees from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Dr. Berman completed his pre-doctoral internship and post-doctoral fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH)/ Harvard Medical School (HMS). He am currently on staff at the MGH/HMS working within the OCD and Related Disorders Program. His clinical and research interests focus on the mechanisms underlying the development and treatment of OCD in individuals across the lifespan. Dr. Berman spend most of his time on research activities, while he also spent time mentoring, conducting clinical care, and completing administrative duties. His research focuses on how cognitive processes (e.g., threat perception) contribute to the pathogenesis of OCD and influence treatment response. His independent line of research began by investigating a demonstrated diathesis for OCD, information processing biases. He examined the developmental experiences that predict information processing biases and validated an in vivo behavioral paradigm that assessed this theoretically important construct. Dr. Berman master’s thesis and dissertation utilized this behavioral paradigm and he published his results in well-respected peer-reviewed journals. His work laid the foundation for my current projects examining the generational transmission of OC-related cognitive biases in vulnerable populations and the mechanisms by which mood states influence threat perception and exposure-based treatment for OCD. Since arriving at MGH, he has received five internal and external grants to support my research endeavors in this arena. Additionally, he was a co-investigator on one internal grant (Mind Brain Behavior Interfaculty Initiative) aimed at understanding and improving mental health professionals’ clinical decision-making regarding use of evidence-based assessment and treatment. Dr. Berman’s research aims to improve the early detection of individuals at risk of developing OCD, maximize the efficacy of exposure-based treatment protocols, and improve the accuracy of clinicians’ decision-making in order to bolster advantageous clinical outcomes. He is also a member of several professional societies, serves as an adjunct reviewer for a dozen peer-review journals, is on the Editorial Board for the Journal of Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders, and is presently a Guest Editor for a special edition of Cognitive and Behavioral Practice.

Reavis, Shaye Benton
Clinical Psychologist

Shaye Reavis received her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in 2007. In graduate school, she was trained in a variety of therapy approaches for both children and adult populations, research methods, and teaching at the undergraduate level. She spent the last portion of her graduate school years participating in the development of a measure, the “First-Year-Inventory”, which is a parent-report measure for infants ideally used at a child’s 12-month pediatric visit. This measure highlights multiple areas of development, and provides an overall score based on parent-report of “red flag” symptoms that have been shown to be early precursors of pervasive developmental disorders. Dr. Reavis used this measure to recruit a sample of at-risk infants and proceeded to study overall communication and social patterns of development in these children. Dr. Reavis trained during her predoctoral internship year at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. Through this placement, she worked at Texas Children’s Hospital as a clinical psychology intern, conducting outpatient individual therapy, skills-based group therapy, neuropsychological and psychological assessment. She also worked in the Department of Psychiatry at Baylor College of Medicine conducting adult therapy and assessment with a variety of populations. Following her graduate from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Dr. Reavis worked for a year with Bonnie Brookshire, Ph.D., a private-practice neuropsychologist in the Houston area, conducting pediatric neuropsychological assessments and generating reports, including those making recommendations for teens requesting extended time on the SAT due to attention difficulties. Her previous, exhaustive literature search regarding autism symptoms in infants was used in a legal case by Dr. Brookshire, who was called as an independent expert witness in a case involving autism and the MMR vaccine. Dr. Reavis has taken time off since 2008 to raise her three children. She is currently involved in a university-model classical school in Houston which focuses on training children in the liberal arts. In this educational model, children attend school two days a week and work from home three days a week, using a lesson plan generated by the school. All work is assigned and graded by the formal teachers, but Dr. Reavis works at home with her children in teaching, projects, and a variety of other school-based activities. Her interests have expanded to include the influence of children’s literature and educational curriculum on child development and school success, and she is currently involved in some writing projects related to the classical model of education and how it relates to neuropsychological development in young children.
