Eating Disorders
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.

Eating Disorders
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.

Jamie Heavey
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, ATR
Eating disorders can be debilitating and isolating, impacting all aspects of an individual's life. As a therapist specializing in eating disorders, I offer a compassionate and comprehensive approach to helping clients overcome their struggles.
In therapy sessions, I work with clients to explore the underlying factors that contribute to their eating disorder, such as body image issues, trauma, and anxiety. Through a combination of talk therapy and evidence-based techniques, I help clients develop new coping skills and strategies for managing their symptoms.
I also provide education and support around nutrition, body image, and self-care, empowering clients to make positive changes in their lives. I understand that eating disorders can affect not only the individual but also their loved ones, so I also offer family therapy and support as needed.
At my practice, I offer a safe and supportive environment for clients to explore their emotions, work through challenges, and build resilience. I believe in a holistic approach to healing, addressing not just the physical symptoms of the eating disorder but also the emotional and psychological aspects.
If you or a loved one are struggling with an eating disorder, know that you don't have to face it alone. Contact me today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards healing and recovery.
