Clinical Health Psychologist & Medical Reviewer
Dr. Taylor Rush, PhD, is a clinical health psychologist and the Director of Behavioral Services and Interdisciplinary Programs at the Cleveland Clinic Center for Neurological Restoration. She specializes in behavioral health for chronic neurological conditions — including Parkinson's disease, movement disorders, and headaches — using cognitive-behavioral therapies to assist with symptom management.
Dr. Rush earned her PhD from East Carolina University and completed her fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic. Since 2015, she has been on staff at the Cleveland Clinic, where she pioneered regular, consistent behavioral health services within the movement disorders section. Her interdisciplinary practice helps patients manage the behavioral health challenges associated with chronic neurological, headache, and vestibular conditions, with particular expertise caring for patients with Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, and essential tremor.
Dr. Rush is heavily involved in patient education, contributing to Cleveland Clinic resources on caregiver support, mindfulness, and the psychological impact of chronic illness. At LTCareNav, she reviews clinical and cognitive care content — including the Care Assessment, memory care guidance, and caregiver-burnout resources — to ensure clinical accuracy.
