About Me
As a clinical psychologist, I work with patients of all ages presenting a wide range of concerns including chronic pain, anxiety, depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, eating/weight concerns, diabetes, asthma and cardiovascular disease.
My goal is to partner with patients and empower them to pursue their values and health goals. I use evidence-based approaches to care such as acceptance and commitment therapy, motivational interviewing, parent-child interaction therapy, prolonged exposure therapy and integrative behavioral couple therapy.
My areas of interest include primary care behavioral integration, interdisciplinary chronic pain rehabilitation programs, evidence-based treatments for behaviorally influenced conditions and acceptance and commitment therapy for a broad range of clinical problems.
My favorite part about working at Ohio State is the ability to treat a variety of diseases and conditions, as well as teach residents and fellows. I appreciate the opportunities for program development and hope to continue developing and implementing models of integrated care.
When I’m not working I enjoy traveling, doing yoga, dancing (ballet, tap, jazz), wine tasting and ambling in the woods with my husband, nieces and nephews.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 11/21/2019, Dr. Greco has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
Everything good.
I was originally seen by another psych provider at OSU who was not helpful at all. So when I got the appointment with Dr. Greco & was extremely nervous. Within the 1st 5 mins. of talking with her all my fears were gone! She's an amazing doctor. She is very caring & takes time to explain & offer ideas. She has helped me turn my life around. She can talk & explain things in a way that help relate & make sense. I'm glad she's my doctor.
Satisfied with service.
excellent doctor
She listened very well and I did not feel judged.
Really like Dr. Greco. She listened to everything I had to say, answered my questions and shared my excitement for the upcoming chronic pain clinic.
Great therapist, perhaps the best I've encountered @ OSU.
I see Dr. Greco on a on going basis and look forward to each and every visit.
really understanding and patient. explains herself very well. listens to everything and gives great care
I feel that the psychologist was telling me to cancel my future appointments without saying those exact words to me. She kept questioning me about whether or not seeing her was what I needed. With her experience, tenure, degree etc. I think she would have been the one in the position to help me understand what kind of help I need. She often didn't want to listen to me when I tried to talk about things that were important to me. My take is that she has a single strategy that she uses period and that if the process was questioned or I just wanted more information she seemed to become combative with me.
