What therapy with me is actually like
You won't spend sessions just talking about your week.
We'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck.
We'll practice new ways of responding.
You'll leave with tools you can use immediately.
I specialize in helping adults who want to heal their relationship to eating, body image and self-worth on a deeper level—if you have been stuck in the “fix-my-body” loop for most of your life, I’m for you. Since 2009, I have worked with highly intelligent individuals with disordered eating including as binge eating disorder, bulimia, and anorexia using an individualized, one-to-one outpatient treatment modality called enhanced cognitive therapy (CBT-E).
After an initial assessment appointment for individuals who are not significantly underweight, CBT-E typically consists of 20 sessions over the course of 20 weeks. For those who are underweight, CBT-E often consists of 40 sessions over the course of 40 weeks.
CBT-E is the leading evidenced-based treatment for adults with all forms of disordered eating. It was developed by Professor Christopher Fairburn and can be read about in depth here.
I always work from a Health At Every Size® (HAES®) perspective, meaning I work with people of all sizes to find compassionate ways to nourish, respect, and accept your unique body. You can learn more about HAES® here.
