Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in eating disorders, my treatment approach is comprehensive and compassionate, focusing on addressing the complex psychological, emotional, and behavioral aspects of these disorders. I utilize evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and family-based treatment (FBT) to help individuals develop a healthier relationship with food, body image, and self-esteem. Through individual and group therapy sessions, I assist clients in identifying and challenging disordered thoughts and behaviors, while also addressing underlying emotional issues and past traumas that may contribute to the development of an eating disorder. Collaborating closely with a multidisciplinary team, including physicians and dietitians, I aim to provide comprehensive care and support tailored to each individual's needs. My goal is to empower clients to overcome their eating disorders, restore their physical and emotional well-being, and cultivate a fulfilling life beyond the confines of their illness.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, JD, PsyD, LMHC
My dissertation is on understanding and successfully treating obesity. The causes and resolution of all eating disorders have common causes and resolution of the psycho-emotional issues is necessary to recovery. I have written a book on the issue.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Eating disorders are often misunderstood as being about food—but they’re rarely just about food. For many people, they’re tied to control, coping, identity, and the pressure of living in a culture that constantly sends messages about what bodies should look like and how they should be managed. These patterns don’t develop in a vacuum. They’re shaped by family dynamics, cultural expectations, systemic bias, and experiences of being scrutinized, objectified, or disconnected from your body. What starts as a way to cope can become something that feels hard to interrupt, even when it’s no longer working.
At Nour Counseling, we approach eating disorders with depth, care, and without judgment. We work with you to understand the function these patterns have served, while also actively building more sustainable ways to cope and relate to your body. This might include normalizing eating patterns, reducing behaviors, addressing underlying thoughts and beliefs, and reconnecting with your body’s cues in a way that feels safe. We also name and unpack the cultural and systemic factors—like diet culture, weight stigma, and dominant body ideals—that reinforce these struggles, so you’re not internalizing something that was never yours to carry. This is collaborative work focused on helping you move toward a more stable, respectful, and supported relationship with food and your body.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.

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.
