Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Eating disorders can involve a painful relationship with food, body image, control, and self-worth. Behaviors such as restriction, binge eating, or purging are not failures of willpower; they often develop as ways of coping with distress, shame, trauma, or overwhelming emotions.
I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental therapy to help clients understand underlying patterns, strengthen emotional regulation, reduce shame, and develop a healthier relationship with themselves and their bodies. Because eating disorders can affect physical health, I support coordinated care with physicians, dietitians, psychiatrists, and higher levels of treatment when clinically appropriate.

Dr. Lynne Logan
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
An eating disorder can be viewed as a form of 'addiction'. Often, there are underlying causes for one to turn to a toxic relationship with food or body image distortion. With obesity, anorexia or bulimia, health is often compromised.
