What if you could stop fighting with food – and start living your life?

When thoughts about food, your body, or exercise take up too much space in your mind, it can be exhausting. You may find yourself caught in a cycle of restricting, bingeing, overeating, compensating, or feeling guilty after eating. You may avoid social situations because of food, constantly compare your body to others, or feel like you have to look a certain way to feel good about yourself.

And even when other people don’t see the struggle, you know how much energy it takes to keep up the fight.

Therapy can give you a safe place to talk about what’s really happening without shame, judgment, or pressure. We’ll work together to understand the emotions and beliefs behind your eating patterns, develop healthier ways to cope, and build a more accepting relationship with yourself and your body.

You don’t need to hate your body less before you deserve help. You don’t need to be “sick enough.” If your relationship with food or your body is interfering with your life, you deserve support.

Recovery is possible. You can learn to trust yourself, nourish your body, and make room for the things that matter beyond food and appearance.

5. What happens during my first appointment?
Your first appointment is an opportunity for you and your therapist to get to know one another, discuss what brings you to therapy, understand your concerns and goals, and begin developing a plan for treatment.

You don’t need to prepare a perfect explanation of everything you’re experiencing. Your therapist will guide the conversation.

6. Do you offer telehealth?
Yes. We offer telehealth appointments for eligible clients, subject to clinical, insurance, and other applicable requirements.
7. Do you accept insurance?
Yes. We are an insurance-based mental health practice and work with participating insurance plans.

Because insurance participation can vary by therapist, service, location, and plan, we recommend contacting our office to confirm whether your specific insurance plan can be used for your requested service.

8. How long will I need therapy?
The length of treatment varies significantly from person to person.

Some people seek therapy for a specific situation or period of their lives, while others benefit from longer-term support. Your therapist will work with you to determine what makes sense for your goals rather than assuming everyone needs the same amount of treatment.

Your mental health starts with you. Let us help you on your journey.
