Eating Disorders

I specialize in eating disorders as a result of specialized training that was engaged in while working at a partial hospitalization program for eating disorders. I work with the entire range of this population and utilize a Health at Every size approach.

I frequently work with folks where family based treatment (FBT) was not a fit or you're wanting an in-depth , somatic based approach to recovery. I predominately use the Neuro Affective Relational Model (NARM) and Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT). I'm Certified in Family Based Treatment (FBT) and practice this when indicated--often for young folks with new eating disorders and caregivers available to engage in the process.

I have training and experience treating eating disorders including Anorexia nervosa, "Atypical" anorexia, Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating Disorder. I also treat subclinical eating concerns (aka disordered eating) and help people healing from chronic dieting, restriction, binge eating, emotional eating, and compulsive exercise. I'm a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor and will help you reclaim peace and freedom in your relationship with food and physical activity.

Eating disorders are typically a symptom of something much bigger we have struggled with in our lives. Living with an eating disorder typically looks like constantly maintaining control in a world where you constantly feel out of control. You may filter "food noise" every moment of the day, whether that's counting down to the next time you eat or guilting yourself for the last thing you ate. Healing looks like control in healthy ways and freedom from the noise.

I work with individuals who suffer with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, or other forms of dysregulated eating and body dysmorphia. Eating disorders are often birthed within traumatic experiences where we block intolerable feelings of fear and shame with obsessions around eating and body size/weight. I am a body positive therapist, and I help my clients learn to listen to and respect their body's wisdom. Learning to trust the body and learning self-compassion are keys to healing.

I have several years of experience in treating Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for ARFID, Family Base Therapy for Anorexia and restrictive eating and a HAES aligned provider supporting binge eating disorder.

Eating disorders can feel hopeless, but they aren’t. Whether this is your first time seeking help, or your umpteenth time, I believe everyone can recover. There are many reasons eating disorders are invited into your life. Whether it’s perfectionism, judgment, loneliness, self-improvement, health, family issues…Just as there are many reasons why a person develops an eating disorder, the way you recover will be just as unique.

Most of my clients experience some degree of distress and dissatisfaction with their relationship to food, which is often connected to broader patterns of self-criticism and shame. Therapy may be for you if you find yourself frequently thinking about food, yet find mealtimes stressful or overwhelming, you judge yourself for how you look and fear everyone else does too, and feel like no one really 'gets' how you feel inside.

Disordered eating has a way of sneaking up on you, even years after you thought you'd conquered it. Maintaining recovery from an eating disorder is tough when life throws us challenges. You might be noticing restricting behaviors popping up when you're under a lot of stress. Maybe you still can't miss a day working out without extreme guilt and anxiety. Finding yourself bingeing again after a frustrating phone call with your mom? I get it. Together, we can take your recovery to the next level.

I have over 8 years of experience working with people who struggle with disordered eating at the residential and outpatient levels. I recognize that most people who struggle with disordered eating and negative body image don't fit into a neatly defined DSM-5 diagnosis and I take this into consideration when adjusting my treatment approach to each individual client. I am body positive, HAES inclusive, and solution focused in my approach.

I have expertise in disordered eating, body image and self esteem, particularly binge eating, body dysmorphia, restricting and over-exercise. Our work is a mix of understanding and modifying behaviors while also exploring the personal, family, social and cultural influences that contributed to their development.

I have been working with eating disorders for almost 4 years. I utilize various modalities when treating eating disorders, such as Internal Family Systems, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I look through the lens of Health at Every Size and Intuitive Eating when treating eating disorders.

I've been actively working with eating disorders since 2018. I have experience helping people with symptoms of food restriction, bulimia, and binge eating. I work from a Health At Every Size framework so that no matter where your ED is coming from, we'll start by meeting you where you are today. Whether you're brand new to the possibility of having an ED, or you need a hand in continuing the next step in your recovery, I'm here to help.

Disordered Eating? I've been there and done it all. I've been to the dark side of both under and over eating and learned so much in my 15 years of recovery. My training and experience has taught me that intuitive eating can be an eventual reality for everyone. I take a Health at Every Size approach to recovery and wholeheartedly believe in your ability to find freedom with food. Note that health at every size and intuitive eating does not mean chaos and endless weight gain (I promise!)

I specialize in the treatment of disordered eating, chronic dieting, and poor body image for those in marginalized bodies. I work from a Health at Every Size©, weight-inclusive paradigm and am training to become Body Trust® certified, a liberatory healing modality based on feminist and social justice principles.

Societal pressures oftentimes reinforce the beliefs that for an individual to struggle with an eating disorder it must be physically apparent and symptoms must be "extreme." All-or-nothing thinking fuels engagement in eating disorder behaviors. Whether it is restriction, bingeing, bingeing & purging, and/or focus on eating "healthy" foods, I believe that each person's recovery will be unique. My philosophy is that all foods fit. Orthorexia

I specialize in working with folks who struggle with Binge Eating Disorder (BED) and compulsive eating, although I also work with people who struggle in many different ways in their relationship to food and body, including anorexia, bulimia, and ARFID. No matter where you are on the spectrum of disordered eating/eating disorder, you deserve to feel more at peace.

I work with clients to heal their relationship to food and body. I believe in body neutrality and body liberation. In other words, I don’t think bodies need fixing — rather, they need healing from a society that makes them feel wrong for existing. I support clients through Health at Every Size, Body Trust, and Intuitive Eating frameworks.
