Dr. Reinblatt is triple boarded in child and adolescent psychiatry, general adult, and consultation liaison psychiatry.  She has expertise in pediatric psychopharmacology, eating disorders and obesity as well as consultative and collaborative care. Prior to becoming a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, Dr. Reinblatt worked as a Family Doctor in Canada. This primary care training provided her a unique vantage point from which she currently consults with Primary Care Clinicians. She consults on psychiatric issues with the statewide Behavioral Health Integration in Pediatric Primary Care (BHIPP) team, performing clinical consultations and contributing to the team’s clinical research focused on collaborative care. Additionally, given her psychopharmacological expertise, Dr. Reinblatt collaborates within the multidisciplinary framework of a Pediatric Prior Authorization program to support community prescribers’ safe and appropriate antipsychotic medication prescribing for youth with public insurance. Her longstanding interest in pediatric psychopharmacological side effects led to her collaboration with experts to examine pediatric obesity as a side effect of antipsychotic medications. Furthermore, she works with the Strive for Wellness Program team focused on clinical and research efforts to prevent psychosis, as part of the Maryland -funded Early Intervention Program. Dr. Reinblatt also provides care via telepsychiatry to teenagers in the Youth Centers of the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services (DJS). Dr Reinblatt has led the Journal Club for Child Psychiatry Fellows at the University of Maryland SOM in addition to her other teaching activities.

Prior to joining the faculty at the University of Maryland, Dr. Reinblatt spent a decade as full-time faculty member in the Department of Psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine during which time she developed specialized clinical expertise working with children, adolescents and adults with eating disorders. During this time, she was awarded a Career Development (K23) Award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) evaluating impulsivity in children who engaged in binge eating behaviors. Her research interests involve pediatric obesity and eating disorders, pediatric psychopharmacology including adverse events,  the use of antipsychotics in youth and integrated and collaborative pediatric care.
