Eating Disorder & Body Image Therapy in Santa Clarita, CA

Compassionate, Evidence-based support for Teens and Adults​

Eating disorders affect people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds—and they are never just about food. Whether you’re struggling with anorexia, binge eating, bulimia, restriction, or body image distress, you deserve care that is personalized, nonjudgmental, and rooted in science and compassion.

​​

Experience You Can Trust​

I began treating clients with eating disorders and co-occurring conditions in 2002 across outpatient, inpatient, and partial hospitalization settings. My clinical focus has included work with:

  • Anorexia Nervosa

  • Binge Eating Disorder (BED)

  • Bulimia Nervosa

  • Emotional eating and body dissatisfaction

I’ve worked with a diverse range of individuals because eating disorders affect all body types, ethnicities, and genders. I’m a proud member of:

  • The Academy for Eating Disorders (AED)

  • The International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals (IAEDP)

  • The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA)

​​

My Treatment Approach​

My approach to eating disorder therapy is holistic and weight-inclusive, rooted in:

  • Intuitive Eating principles

  • Health at Every Size principles

  • A rejection of diet culture and body shaming

  • A deep respect for your emotional and physical wellness

I integrate evidence-based interventions (such as CBT, DBT, and mindfulness) with relational psychodynamic therapy. For more information on my methods, please visit Therapeutic Approaches.

​​

Collaborative Care​

Recovery often requires a strong support team. I collaborate closely with:

  • Registered dietitians

  • Psychiatrists

  • Primary care physicians and internists

This integrated care model ensures that you’re supported medically, nutritionally, and emotionally.

Healing Your Relationship with Food and Body​

My passion is helping you move beyond shame, self-blame, and body dissatisfaction into a place of self-compassion, balance, and emotional freedom.

In therapy, we will:

  • Challenge internalized beliefs about body size and worth

  • Explore the emotional roots of eating disorder symptoms

  • Develop new ways of relating to food, movement, and self-care

  • Cultivate joy, connection, and lasting change

Eating disorders are not just about food—and full recovery is absolutely possible.
