Eating Disorder Therapy
You do not have to wait until you feel "sick enough" to deserve help.
For those who fear your next meal. Worry about being alone with a full kitchen. Afraid to get dressed each morning. Scared to eat at a restaurant. Counting calories from morning to night. Exercising more and more each day. Needing to be perfect.
Shame has no place in your life, you can end the exhausting cycle. Getting help can get your freedom, time, and life back.
You can feel relaxed when eating out. You don't have to keep suffering silently. Food and body image can become less important in your life, leaving room for you to focus on the things that matter to you most.
I've helped many people find joy and freedom in their recovery, and I believe there is hope for you too.
Eating Disorder Recovery is not about perfection—it’s about creating a life that feels more grounded, flexible, and free.

Help for Eating Disorders
As a Health at Every Size® (HAES®) therapist that has seen first hand the impacts of eating disorders on my clients and their families, getting help from the right therapist matters. I have worked in residential programs, in medical/psychiatric hospitals, outpatient clinics, and Partial/Intensive Outpatient programs helping my clients navigate the treacherous path that is eating disorders. With over 7+ years with this expertise, there is no shame or judgement on your journey throughout treatment.
I often described eating disorders as the worst roller coaster, it goes up and down constantly, throwing you for loops, the build up feels worse before it feels better. But recovery isn't about having a perfect ride, it's about learning how to navigate the ups and downs with support, self-compassion, and effective tools.
Examples of Skills
Learned in Therapy
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
(DBT)
Where mindfulness, distress tolerance skills, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness skills are taught to help you manage intense emotions, reduce self-harming behaviors, and improve relationships
Cognitive Behavior Therapy
(CBT)
Understand how your thoughts, emotions, and
behaviors are interconnected. By recognize and
reframe negative and distorted thought patterns,
you can change your behavioral responses and
improve your emotional well-being
Relational Psychotherapy
Learn how your past and present relationships shape your wellbeing. The dynamic between the client and therapist is used as a tool, creating an environment that is exploratory, collaborative, and focused on the emotional dynamics of your conversations. You will process current symptoms back to their roots to understand how early experiences influence current behavioral patterns.
Acceptance and Commitment
Therapy (ACT)
Incorporate the 6 core principles of ACT to learn
how to accept painful thoughts/beliefs as natural
ways of thinking, and commit to behavioral
changes that align with your values - not your anxiety.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Explore root causes of distress by discussing in depth defense mechanisms, early relationships and understanding of self, and the unconscious mind (behaviors/fears/motivation) that impact how you move through the world daily.
Somatic Approach
Focus on the mind-body connection to help
process experiences and release tension in the
nervous system. In this “bottoms up” approach,
we use the body’s physical sensations to shift
emotional states. You can learn to calm your
nervous system, discharge built-up stress, and
return to a state of safety and regulation
