I'm passionate about collaborating with each patient as a whole person to identify and address overlapping medical and mental health concerns.

Dr. Demi Cush is a licensed clinical health psychologist who specializes in medical and health psychology. At Oshi, she partners with patients to help them live full, meaningful lives while navigating digestive health challenges.

Dr. Cush believes health is like a pie, with each piece representing a part of a person’s well-being. Sometimes, a few slices need extra attention to bring things back into balance. She works with patients to discover which pieces could use extra care, using science-backed strategies to heal the gut-brain connection.

With over 10 years of experience in academic and VA medical centers, Dr. Cush has helped many people manage GI conditions and other health concerns.

When she’s not working, Dr. Cush enjoys cooking, riverside runs, and spending time with her husband and two dogs.
