Our Team

Aubrey Tool, PhD

Hello and welcome! I’m Aubrey, a licensed psychologist who works and lives in Santa Barbara,
California. Clinically, I work with individuals experiencing eating and body image concerns, and
anxiety/perfectionism/shame, as well as people navigating transitions and identity exploration. I
also work with parents and partners of folks with eating disorders to help support and guide them
in caring for their loved one and themselves. Lastly, I specialize in treating athletes with eating
disorders and/or other mental health concerns.

I completed my bachelor’s degree in Psychology with Highest Honors at UC Berkeley and
received my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. My
predoctoral internship took place at the Emory University School of Medicine Department of
Psychiatry, where I worked with children, adolescents, and young adults with eating disorders,
emotion regulation difficulties, anxiety, depression, OCD, and PTSD. I completed my
postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford University’s School of Medicine within the Psychosocial
Treatment Clinic, where my training focused on evidence-based treatments for eating disorders,
anxiety and mood disorders, couples/families, and high-performance athletes, as well as clinical
supervision. I then went on to work for 5+ years at within the Stanford Department of Psychiatry
as a Clinical Assistant Professor, treating patients, teaching, and supervising and mentoring
psychology doctoral students. I now work full-time in my private practice.
