One of our treatment specialties is helping people to find freedom from disordered eating and negative body image. We can help you to develop a healthy relationship with food, your body and your mind while giving you tools to cope with life stressors and preserve your mental health. We serve adolescents and adults, and encourage family involvement. Because eating disorders can be complex, and they affect one’s physical, emotional, spiritual and relational health they require an integrative approach. Our dietitian will provide appropriate structure and support in helping you learn to fuel your body appropriately. Our therapists will help you to explore the underlying roots to the problem and develop skills to reduce anxiety with eating and practice self-compassion, which helps to heal the shame that tends to drive these conditions. Whatever your struggle, we will help you to recognize underlying problems, utilize your strengths and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to live a meaningful and purposeful life. We employ principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, Brainspotting and other modalities to meet these goals.
