Alicia Panchal
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I have worked in eating disorders for over 5 years, with experience working specifically in an eating disorders program, supporting children, adolescents, and adults who have been affected by disordered eating.
Your eating disorder is here for a reason. It's up to us to figure out what that is, and how to meet your needs in a way that allows you to nourish your body, and cope with emotions and stressors that have been too difficult to manage.
Having an eating disorder can be such an isolating and exhausting thing to experience. That voice inside your head that's trying to control your relationship with food, movement, and your body gets louder and louder each day, and the emotional distress is just so strong. My work in supporting those with eating disorders focuses first and foremost, on normalizing your relationship with food, and eliminating any associated behaviours (purging, over exercising, weighing, bingeing, etc). My goal is ensuring that your body gets the nourishment it needs, so that we can do the work of talking back to that eating disorder voice, get you to a place where you can have foods you enjoy free of anxiety and guilt, and create a safe and accepting relationship with your body.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I approach the delicate issue of eating disorders with empathy and understanding, offering a safe space for clients to confront and overcome their challenges. By integrating holistic strategies alongside psychotherapeutic techniques like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness, I support clients in addressing the underlying emotional and psychological factors contributing to their eating disorder. We work together to foster a healthier relationship with food and body image, incorporating lifestyle changes that promote overall well-being, such as balanced nutrition, mindful eating practices, and self-care routines. My goal is to empower clients to reclaim control over their eating habits, develop positive coping mechanisms, and embark on a path towards recovery and self-acceptance. For those struggling with eating disorders and seeking compassionate support, I am committed to guiding you through your journey of healing and transformation.
