Eating Disorders
Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future, I specialize in providing therapy for individuals struggling with eating disorders. Eating disorders can have a profound impact on both physical and mental health, but with the right support, recovery is possible.
In our sessions, I create a compassionate and non-judgmental space where you can explore the underlying factors contributing to your eating disorder. Together, we'll work to understand your relationship with food, address distorted beliefs and thoughts, and develop healthier coping mechanisms.
My approach to treating eating disorders is holistic, addressing not only the symptoms but also the underlying emotional and psychological factors. I use evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness-Based Interventions to help you develop a healthier relationship with food and your body.
Recovery from an eating disorder is a journey, but you don't have to travel it alone. I'm here to provide you with the support, guidance, and tools you need to overcome your eating disorder and live a life free from its grip. If you're ready to take the first step towards recovery, I'm here to help you every step of the way.

Eating Disorders
Pamela Mekuz
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Q)
Struggling with an eating disorder can be exhausting, affecting not only your relationship with food and your body, but also your emotions, relationships, and overall well-being. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to recovery. Each person's experiences, challenges, and needs are unique, and what helps one person may not be right for another. Drawing on my background in eating disorder recovery coaching, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore your relationship with food, better understand the thoughts and emotions underlying your struggles, and work toward a healthier, more peaceful relationship with yourself and your body. Recovery is a personal journey, and together we can explore what that might look like for you.

Eating Disorders
Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Disordered eating is often about far more than food. For many people, it can be deeply connected to ADHD, autism, trauma, sensory needs, emotional regulation, shame, control, or years of trying to cope in ways that made sense at the time.
My approach is compassionate, affirming, and focused on understanding what may be beneath the surface — not just the behaviors themselves. Together, we explore patterns around food, self-worth, nervous system needs, and coping while working to reduce shame, strengthen self-understanding, and build more supportive, sustainable ways forward.

Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
Art therapy offers a compassionate and nonjudgmental space to explore the complex emotions and underlying patterns connected to eating disorders. Through creative expression, you can externalize inner conflicts, process feelings around body image, and develop a deeper connection to yourself. Art-making provides a way to express what words cannot, fostering self-awareness, emotional regulation, and self-compassion. My approach integrates mindfulness, body-based practices, and trauma-informed care to support you in reclaiming a sense of balance, agency, and a more nourishing relationship with yourself.
