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.

Does this sound familiar?
You feel frustrated, ashamed and exhausted because you haven’t been able to get your eating under control. You try to “be good” by avoiding certain types of food only to end up losing control and binging those very same foods, over and over again. You may also be trying to make up for binges my throwing up, using laxatives or diuretics, and/or exercising. You may be hiding that you’re struggling from the people in your life because you’re afraid of being judged. You have achieved success in other areas of your life when you applied yourself but in spite of your best efforts you just can’t seem to “willpower” your way out of binge eating.
With Health at Every Size (HAES), Intuitive Eating (IE), Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC), and other evidence-based approaches, I will help you cultivate self-worth and body respect so you can be kind to yourself and redirect your energy to what fills you with purpose and joy. I specialize in helping individuals who struggle with disordered eating, chronic dieting, binge eating disorder, bulimia nervosa, "emotional eating", "overeating", and unhelpful compensatory behaviors.

Madeleine Foster
Counselor/Therapist, MA, AMFT, APCC
I help people with eating disorders overcome their concerns with feeding and eating by assisting them in developing and maturing their minds intellectually, emotionally, and psychologically. I appreciate the unique complexities involved in developing and interrupting eating disorder tendencies and recognize how early experiences impact the mind and the body. Rich insight and sustained change over time can be found by working in a psychodynamic fashion.

Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
Our emotional relationship with food is a powerful path of self-development if we find ourselves walking upon it. "The path of food" is a different way of viewing struggles with emotional eating, a way that is hard work, but extraordinarily illuminating of some of the deepest parts of ourselves. Struggles with food and eating are not accidents, nor are they pathology, but the yearning in the depth of ourselves to find freedom and ease in life. Accompaniment by another who knows this path can be extraordinarily helpful and comforting as you walk the way of food.
