Are you the parent of an adolescent or young adult struggling with an eating disorder? If so, you probably feel lost, scared, or even guilty for not picking up on the eating disorder behaviors sooner. It’s not your fault! You did the best you could with what you knew at the time. Most parents wonder, why can't my child just eat normally? It’s much deeper than just eating food. The psychological must also be addressed. There will be new things you will learn and there will be new things your child will learn. In general, adolescence and early adulthood is a transitional developmental stage, which comes with its own challenges.
I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and athletes with eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating. I utilize family-based treatment and provide guidance to you as the parent. You play an important role in your child’s recovery. You can feel confident your child will be in safe hands during this challenging time.
It’s hard to find answers when you’re feeling desperate and overwhelmed. You may not know where to turn, but you’re searching. In the wealth of information available on the internet, it’s hard to distinguish between what is useful and what is not. My goal is to help you find answers and bring a sense of stability during what may feel like a chaotic time.
