Are you a parent struggling to support your child with an eating disorder? With 25 years of experience working with this population and having personally recovered from an eating disorder for 32 years, I bring both professional expertise and personal insight to our work together.
Supporting a child with an eating disorder can be an overwhelming and isolating experience. Parents often feel helpless, anxious, and uncertain about how to best support their child. You may be constantly worried about your child's health, struggling to communicate effectively, and dealing with the emotional toll it takes on the entire family.
It’s crucial for parents to have guidance and support during this challenging time. I provide a compassionate and understanding environment where you can share your fears and frustrations, gain valuable insights, and learn effective strategies to help your child while also taking care of your own emotional well-being.
My goal is to help you navigate these complex feelings and situations, offering practical advice and emotional support. It’s important for parents to have this support, not only to better assist their child but also to manage the stress and emotional impact it has on the family.
Together, we’ll develop a personalized plan that empowers you and your child to navigate this journey with strength and resilience. Reach out today to start your journey towards healing and empowerment for both you and your child.

Finding peace with your body and food is a true struggle in the times and culture we inhabit. Whether you are struggling with full-on eating disorders such as anorexia, binge eating disorder (BED), or bulimia, or have a hard time finding a connection to your body and eating, there are tools and support for you. We have multiple resources including cognitive, trauma-based, somatic, and experiential therapies to begin the path of creating and walking in a loving healthy relationship with food and with your body. There are no one-size-fits-all approaches as eating disorders are most often the symptom rather than the root. Changing behaviors allow us to begin to see the power of 'embodiment' and how truly free and powerful you are to become......yourself.

Individuals experiencing Eating Disorders have an obsessive focus on food and are critical of their bodies to an extent that affects their daily lives. Age, gender, genetics, stress, and even certain vocations can lend to an eating disorder. For example, a runner or gymnast may be more disposed to an eating disorder – teenagers and young adults struggling with social pressures or individuals experiencing divorce or career changes are also prone to developing problematic eating habits. These individuals are generally attempting to cope with their overwhelming feelings and painful emotions by controlling what they ingest.
There are several types of eating disorders with varied actions and effects. Anorexia Nervosa is a severe restriction of food and overexercising causing the individual to become very thin and malnourished. Bulimia Nervosa is a cycle of binging on large amounts of food then purging the calories by vomiting, laxatives, and excessive exercise. Binge Eating Disorder (BED) involves binge eating without purging and they can’t seem to stop eating even when overly full, then they feel guilty and embarrassed by the situation. Other eating disorders include Pica, Rumination Disorder, Avoidant/Restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), Night Eating Syndrome (NES), and Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder (OSFED).
An individual with an eating disorder can recover and learn to have a healthy relationship with food again. It is helpful to recognize the signs and get treatment as early as possible. Medical doctors should also be consulted in addition to a therapist to ensure nutritional needs are being met for optimal health and general wellbeing. Family support is also helpful, especially when an adolescent or young adult is being treated.
