Eating Disorders
Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Eating disorders are complex illnesses that cause much pain and suffering. While multiple pathways can lead to eating problems, healing from them almost always takes time and patience, but it can be done. I spent five years as a staff clinician on a nj eating disorder program early in my career ( alll levels of care and severity) and my dissertation research included the topic of bulimia. I have worked with women in private practice with clinical and sub clinical levels of eating problems. It is one of my specialties. Taking the first step to reach out for treatment takes courage but can be life-changing.

Eating Disorders
Catherine Cabrera
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LMHC
For many high-achieving women, struggles with food and body image can become tied to perfectionism, control, and the pressure to always be “doing better.” What may start as trying to be healthy or disciplined can slowly turn into constant mental noise around food, guilt after eating, or rigid rules that are exhausting to maintain.
I work with women navigating eating disorders and disordered eating using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Together, we explore the patterns that keep these cycles going while building practical tools to reduce shame, manage difficult emotions, and develop a more stable relationship with food and your body.
My approach is supportive, honest, and empowering—creating a space where you don’t have to hide the struggle and can begin moving toward balance rather than constant self-criticism.
