Eating Disorders
Ross W. Hackerson
Life Coach, Life Coach
Eating Disorders, like all addictions and compulsions is about chasing a Self-Affirming Feeling. Whether that feeling is "I'm Me!" or "I'm the Boss of Me." or "I exist, I matter!" or something else, we can get to the driver of the pattern and extinguish it. And this is a big one, aimed directly at survival so it's not easy. Call me.

Eating Disorders
Ricardo Despradel
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC,LPC
I specialize in the evidence-based treatment of eating disorders across a range of presentations, with particular expertise in Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) and the more traditional eating disorder diagnoses. For clients with ARFID — whether driven by sensory sensitivities, fear of aversive consequences, or low interest in eating — I use CBT-AR, a structured cognitive-behavioral approach specifically designed to address food avoidance without the weight and shape concerns typical of other eating disorders. For clients struggling with Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, or Binge Eating Disorder, I draw on CBT-Enhanced (CBT-E), one of the most rigorously studied treatments for eating pathology. I work with teens and adults across diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC clients, and offer all sessions via secure telehealth across New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts.

20 Years Experience
Online in Springfield, MA
Springfield is the largest city in western Massachusetts and one of the state's most economically challenged communities, with high rates of poverty, significant post-industrial decline, and a large Puerto Rican population that makes it one of the most culturally distinct cities in New England. Spanish-language therapy is essential, and the demand for bilingual practitioners who understand the specific experiences of Puerto Rican and broader Latino communities significantly shapes the local mental health landscape. Baystate Health operates behavioral health programs in the city, and several community mental health centers provide sliding-scale and publicly funded services for residents who cannot afford private therapy. Common therapy concerns include trauma, anxiety, depression, economic stress, and the complex intergenerational dynamics of a diaspora community that has been central to Springfield's identity for decades.
