Eating Disorders
Mona Saba Valeriano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I take a psychodynamic and IFS approach to understanding the roots of eating disorders in the clients I work with. Patterns of anorexia, bulimia, or binge-eating disorder are often complex coping strategies that emerge in response to developmental trauma. For example, clients with anorexia may be seeking control in the face of a domineering parent, those with bulimia may be processing underlying rage, and clients with binge-eating disorder may be internalizing parental criticisms or projections.
I believe that lasting change requires addressing the underlying emotional and relational dynamics that fuel the disorder. By exploring these deeper currents, we can begin to loosen the attachment to compulsive behaviors and support clients in developing a more compassionate and integrated relationship with themselves.

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.
