Mallory Lamb
Psy.D.

Professional Background

I earned my Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) from Wheaton College in Illinois, with a concentration in neuropsychology. Prior, I completed my Bachelors from University of Wisconsin Oshkosh and a Masters in clinical psychology from Wheaton College.

I completed my pre-doctoral internship at Veterans Affairs (VA) Connecticut Healthcare System, with a rotation at UConn. To complete the highest level of training, I pursued a post-doctoral fellowship at Dallas VA Medical Center in Texas, and subsequently accepted a full-time staff position.

I relocated to the St. Louis area in the summer of 2020 and started this practice, White Stone.

Over the past 10 years, I have worked in a wide variety of mental health settings: outpatient general mental health, inpatient substance use, inpatient psychiatry, primary care, subacute medical rehab, inpatient hospice, college counseling center, academic hospitals (University of Chicago, UConn), and senior community health.

While I have a generalist foundation with a wide net of competencies, I have unique competencies in specialty areas of spiritual integration and health psychology.

Life outside the office

I value authenticity, kindness, and adventure, all of which are reflected in my personality. I am often smiling, upbeat, and inquisitive.

I practice what I teach, and attempt to live a life most congruent with my values — one that feels vibrant and fulfilling. For me, that often looks like challenging goals, pursuing change, and spending time in nature.

In pre-covid 2020, I quit my hospital job to backpack the Appalachian Trail. On trail, I established a plan to create a more values-aligned life, which was the catalyst to starting this private practice. I have since thru-hiked the Colorado Trail and the River to River Trail. I am happiest when climbing mountains and sleeping under the stars.

When not in the office or trekking outdoors, I enjoy training and competing in triathlon races, learning piano, and spending time with my husband and family.
