Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
When working with individuals struggling with eating disorders, I recognize that recovery often requires a multidisciplinary team approach to address the complex and multifaceted nature of their challenges. In therapy, I integrate a variety of techniques, including psychodynamic therapy to explore underlying emotional issues and unresolved conflicts that may contribute to the disorder. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhealthy thought patterns and behaviors related to food and body image. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is another key tool that I employ to assist clients in developing emotional regulation and coping skills. My goal is to empower individuals by helping them reclaim their lives, offering them hope and practical strategies for recovery. By combining these evidence-based approaches within a supportive framework, I strive to provide clients with the tools they need to step into recovery with confidence and resilience.

Harney & Associates
Psychologist, PhD
We understand that eating disorders are deeply emotional disorders - food and body are the tip of the iceberg. We help clients understand the root of their disorder as well as the thoughts and actions that maintain a heartbreaking, difficult cycle of disordered eating and body dissatisfaction. We explore the benefits of recovery as well as process the loss of the eating disorder itself.

Erin Anderson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MS, MSW, LCSW
I provide compassionate, individualized support for individuals struggling with eating disorders. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their relationship with food and body image while working toward healing. Using a strengths-based and holistic approach, I help clients identify underlying emotional patterns, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and develop healthier eating habits and coping strategies. By incorporating mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and self-compassion practices, I guide individuals toward a more balanced and positive connection with food, their bodies, and themselves. My goal is to empower clients to foster long-term well-being and a renewed sense of self-worth.
