TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY: Each person can move towards health and function as an integrated person with support. Therapy assists my client in gaining insight, AND importantly, putting this insight into action in order to live a healthy full life. The eating disordered client suffers from a specific type of anxiety. With treatment, patients can recover.
 
Yes, I think it is possible to recover from an eating disorder and define recovery as: The ability to maintain a healthy weight, have people that you love in your life and love you.
