Ashley Higgins
Psychologist, Psy.D.
It is incredibly brave to start the process of recovery. Whether you identify as having an eating disorder, disordered eating, recovered in the past, or just know that your relationship with food and movement is not what you want, you deserve support! I have been focused on treating individuals with eating disorders for more than 10 years, including publishing my dissertation research on eating disorder prevention.
I understand that everyone's recovery journey is different, and the level of support you need will be individualized. The foundation of my work is in CBT and DBT principles, but that does not mean that all of my patients receive a strict CBT approach. The first few therapy session are dedicated to coming up with your goals and identifying what treatment styles work best for you. If you have tried treatment in the past and something didn't "click" for you, you are not alone. You are the expert on what works well for you!
I also understand that eating disorders are almost never a stand-alone condition, and that chronic anxiety, PTSD, mood challenges, and chronic illness complicate the picture of recovery. It is my goal to develop a holistic view of what you want your life to look like in recovery, and develop skills to work toward that vision.

Michael Berry
Psychologist, PhD
My work with eating and weight-related concerns focuses on helping adults develop a healthier, more sustainable relationship with food, exercise, and their bodies. Using evidence-based cognitive behavioral and biopsychosocial approaches, I help patients understand the psychological, behavioral, and physiological factors that influence eating and weight, while supporting thoughtful, sustainable weight-management goals without promoting restrictive or harmful behaviors. Treatment is individualized and collaborative, with an emphasis on long-term health, behavioral change, and overall well-being.

Dr. Joe Rustum

I help clients struggling with disordered eating, body image concerns, perfectionism, and a difficult relationship with food or control. In therapy, we work on understanding the emotional patterns, self-criticism, and unrealistic standards that may be contributing to these struggles. My goal is to support clients in developing healthier coping skills, a more balanced relationship with food and body image, and greater self-compassion.
