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.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in supporting individuals struggling with eating disorders and disordered eating, recognizing that these patterns are often connected to deeper emotional experiences, stress, and a need for control or coping. Together, we work to understand the underlying patterns while building healthier, more sustainable ways to relate to food, your body, and yourself. My approach is compassionate, structured, and grounded in both skill-building and mind-body awareness, helping you reduce harmful behaviors, regulate emotions, and move toward a more balanced and trusting relationship with yourself.

Katie Steinert
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Eating disorders arise from a combination of psychological, biological, interpersonal, and cultural factors. Let's collaborate to explore how these factors may be keeping you stuck in your eating disorder.
A team approach to eating disorder treatment has been proven most effective - this includes engagement in nutrition counseling, psychiatric services (if needed), medical monitoring, and therapy simultaneously. Part of my role is to help you set up this treatment team, if not already established. In line with best practices, I prioritize a team approach to treatment and prefer to collaborate with other members of your treatment team in order to ensure that you are receiving the best care possible.
