About

Dr. Clore comes from a long line of public educators and always wanted teaching to be a part of her career path. Following her undergraduate psychology and communications studies, Dr. Clore joined the United States Peace Corps and served as a teaching trainer in Namibia. She then returned to Western Michigan University to earn a master’s degree in applied behavior analysis and a doctoral degree in clinical psychology. She completed an APA-approved doctoral internship at the Pacific University Psychological Service Center in Portland, Oregon. Although living in Oregon appealed to Dr. Clore’s interests in hiking, gourmet coffee, and ethnic food, she returned to the Midwest and joined the UICOMP Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine in 2011. Dr. Clore specializes in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and forensic psychology. She serves as the psychiatry residency Associate Program Director, the medical student clerkship director, the department Vica Chair, and as Co-Chair of the Women in Medicine and Science Council.
