I know that full recovery is possible, and I believe everyone can achieve it. Eating disorders are serious illnesses and they usually develop as a way of coping with something difficult, but can become habitual. I approach this work with compassion, collaboration, and without judgment. I’ll always explain the reasoning behind what we’re doing, and we’ll work together to identify your treatment goals.
My primary approach is enhanced cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT-E), the leading evidence-based treatment for adults with eating disorders. CBT-E helps you normalize eating, interrupt cycles of restriction, binge-eating, and purging, and loosen the grip that shape, weight, and food rules have on how you view and value yourself. I integrate acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help you make room for difficult thoughts and feelings and move toward what matters most to you. Because recovery often works best with a team, I’m happy to coordinate with your physician, dietitian, or psychiatrist.
Most of the people I work with are adolescents and adults struggling with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, OSFED, or a difficult relationship with food and their body that hasn’t been given a name. I especially enjoy working with emerging adults and have completed a fellowship in student mental health at Weill Cornell Medicine. This stage of life often brings major transitions, such as starting college, living away from home, and entering the workforce, and it’s a time when eating disorders often emerge or intensify.
Many of my clients also deal with anxiety, depression, OCD, perfectionism, or harsh self-criticism, and we address these alongside the eating disorder. I also support women whose eating and body image concerns arise or worsen during pregnancy and postpartum. If food or body image is taking up too much space in your life, I’d love to hear your story and see if we might be a good fit.
