Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
In order to stay up to date on the latest developments in the treatment of Eating Disorders, I attend many seminars on the topic. I have been on the leading edge of incorporating Mindfulness into this process and research shows that Mindfulness can be both protective and therepeutic. For many years I have directed a program called Lose Weight Now. I have also presented an hour-long radio program on Mindful Eating and as well as a workshop on Mindful Eating. I have helped children, adolescents and adults for weight loss and eating disorders. I offer regular free zoom seminars, which can kick start your development of Mindfulness. Please feel free to call for info or a consultation: 301-229-8000. Please Note: Some aspects of eating disorders can be life threatening and if you or someone you know needs immediate assistance please call the National Alliance for Eating Disorders Free Helpline 1-866-662-1235.

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.

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.
