Eating Disorders therapists in Edgewood, Maryland MD
Stacey Hellman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
I include eating disorder behavior in the category of "self-harm" or "addictions" and treat them the same way as I treat any addictive behavior. I believe that addictive behaviors have underlying meanings and I can help clients understand and decode what those meanings are for any particular behavior. For example, food-restricting behavior (commonly referred to as Anorexia) always has to do with trying to gain a sense of control when other areas of the clients life are totally out of control. I'm constantly saying "it's not really about the food" because there are always deeper issues that need to be addressed and the behavior is just a symptom, it's not the real problem. I don't believe in any kind of calorie counting, food measuring, or focusing on weight for clients with eating disorder behavior. Instead I focus on what the behavior is TELLING us, and what needs are trying to be met by engaging in the behavior.
