Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Finding peace with your body and food is a true struggle in the times and culture we inhabit. Whether you are struggling with full-on eating disorders such as anorexia, binge eating disorder (BED), or bulimia, or have a hard time finding a connection to your body and eating, there are tools and support for you. We have multiple resources including cognitive, trauma-based, somatic, and experiential therapies to begin the path of creating and walking in a loving healthy relationship with food and with your body. There are no one-size-fits-all approaches as eating disorders are most often the symptom rather than the root. Changing behaviors allow us to begin to see the power of 'embodiment' and how truly free and powerful you are to become......yourself.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
Depending on where you are in your recovery process, Somatic Experiencing can be a great supplement to ED recovery. If you've moved through the worst of it, you have a care team, you're eating well, and you're feeling stable- but you still have a hard time feeling at home in your body; you're still uncomfortable with feeling hunger/fullness signals or sometimes feeling ANYthing from your body, then Somatic Experiencing can be a great help.
Incrementally, step by step, we can start establishing a safe 'line of communication' between you and your body, so instead of feeling like a floating head, you can start feeling more of an integrated mind-body system.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Together we uncover old programming and habits that contribute to the unwanted eating disorder and process and let go of them. We then replace the old with the new healthy and vital way of eating and living. We use hypnosis, EMT, NLP, parts work, childhood regression, breathwork and more to get there. I provide you with a framework to proactively circumvent any impules or bad decisions and choose the alternative that is going to support you in your current goals of self love and abundance and health and vitality.

Providence is home to Brown University, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), and Providence College — together generating significant student mental health demand and a creative, intellectually engaged population that views therapy favorably and tends toward longer-term, exploratory work. The city has a large Cape Verdean and Latino community, with a significant Guatemalan and Dominican population that creates demand for culturally affirming, Spanish-speaking therapists who understand the particular dynamics of immigrant family life in New England. Rhode Island Hospital and the Brown University Health system provide institutional mental health resources, while Brown's Warren Alpert Medical School maintains important psychiatric training programs. Providence's arts and hospitality economy creates consistent demand for therapists experienced with creative identity, economic precarity, and the mental health challenges of artists and performers.
