The pit in your stomach as you walk into the office. You meant to leave early, but you are running late, again. Hopefully the boss doesn’t notice. You have a to do list, that you left “somewhere around here”. At home, there is the bill pile next to the mail pile, but they disappear if you can’t see them. You have the best of intentions, but the missed appointments and missed deadlines are piling up. You tried one planner system, then another, but nothing ever seems to really change. The worst is this feeling that you are not living up to who you want to be… and it is hard to picture how to make this any better.

Many people with eating disorders have a history of traumatic experiences, but I also believe that the eating disorder is a traumatic experience itself. When we treat eating disorders, we are treating trauma. People with eating disorders are often very accomplished because they are so hard-working and caring, but I always find myself wondering, what more could their life hold for them in recovery? How much more could they enjoy their accomplishments and their lives? In addition to working with patients individually, I specialize in family based treatment, which helps families learn to support their loved ones' recovery at home.

In my work, I want to understand your brain functioning, as well as how information flows. Perhaps your brain is functioning well but processing the information that comes in is a struggle. Or perhaps you have a peak performing brain in terms of how information is processed, but it is not functioning to its peak level. As a client, you have been to countless doctors, and therapists, as well as other types of treatment. And yet you STILL can't seem to get stabilized or feel like your life is on track. Medications might work a little - but really don’t seem to solve the struggle. and you just want to feel normal and feel GOOD!

Disruptions in relationships regularly occur in life and the experience of feeling disconnected is not uncommon. Many of us have experienced children growing older and leaving home, job loss, retirement, frequent arguments with those closest to us, divorce, separation, and death of loved ones. Some of us have experienced life threatening events, serious illnesses and physical losses that result in a dramatic shift on how we fit into the world and in the lives of others. These events can result in a loss of satisfaction in life or at times a loss of hope in having a life worth living.

There are reasons why we are the way we are and react to the world around us. Whether it be how we were raised, our school or work environment, or significant life events, we are impacted by systems and events around us. Though we try to make changes on our own, it can be challenging and feel hopeless. You have done the best you can with what you had in front of you, and this strength has led you to taking a huge step, asking for support. Through individual, couple, or family therapy, we will work together to explore how you, you and your loved one, and/ or family have been impacted.
