Eating Disorders
Mary Knoblock, DNH
Hypnotherapist, DNH, RTT Practitioner, Hypnotist, Holistic Naturopath Practitioner, Spiritual Counselor
I work with clients to find root causes of their eating disorders and help them get better. I’m specializing in eating disorders currently and am seeing fantastic results with using RTT Rapid Transformation Therapy for eating disorders. It can lead to greater appetite around meal time, increased coping skills and feeling less anxious about food.

Eating Disorders
Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Eating disorders are complex and often rooted in deeper emotional, relational, and cultural experiences. I take a nonjudgmental, whole-person approach that addresses both behaviors and the underlying patterns driving them. Together, we work toward a more peaceful relationship with food, body, and self, integrating evidence-based approaches with compassionate, individualized care.

Eating Disorders
Desert to Peaks Psychology
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Our team understands that disordered eating behaviors often serve a purpose, whether related to control, coping, identity, or self-worth, and we'll work with you to gently uncover and address the underlying needs beneath these behaviors. Our therapists prioritize creating a space that is nonjudgmental and steady, where you can speak openly about thoughts, urges, and patterns that may feel confusing or hard to share. Our team is trained in CBT, DBT, and Family Systems approaches to treating eating disorders. During sessions we may gently challenge rigid food rules, identify triggers for disordered thoughts and behaviors, reduce shame, build more flexible thinking patterns about bodies and food, and strengthen emotion regulation and self-compassion. Our team is well versed in collaborating with other providers to support medical and nutritional stability.

Eating Disorders
Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Individuals experiencing Eating Disorders have an obsessive focus on food and are critical of their bodies to an extent that affects their daily lives. Age, gender, genetics, stress, and even certain vocations can lend to an eating disorder. For example, a runner or gymnast may be more disposed to an eating disorder – teenagers and young adults struggling with social pressures or individuals experiencing divorce or career changes are also prone to developing problematic eating habits. These individuals are generally attempting to cope with their overwhelming feelings and painful emotions by controlling what they ingest.
There are several types of eating disorders with varied actions and effects. Anorexia Nervosa is a severe restriction of food and overexercising causing the individual to become very thin and malnourished. Bulimia Nervosa is a cycle of binging on large amounts of food then purging the calories by vomiting, laxatives, and excessive exercise. Binge Eating Disorder (BED) involves binge eating without purging and they can’t seem to stop eating even when overly full, then they feel guilty and embarrassed by the situation. Other eating disorders include Pica, Rumination Disorder, Avoidant/Restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), Night Eating Syndrome (NES), and Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder (OSFED).
An individual with an eating disorder can recover and learn to have a healthy relationship with food again. It is helpful to recognize the signs and get treatment as early as possible. Medical doctors should also be consulted in addition to a therapist to ensure nutritional needs are being met for optimal health and general wellbeing. Family support is also helpful, especially when an adolescent or young adult is being treated.
