Struggling with an eating disorder can impact every area of one's life including relationships, love life, work and school. I believe that struggles surrounding food and body image have a great deal of meaning and provides many men and women with a way of coping with difficulties in one's life. My treatment approach is one in which I work with clients to gain a deeper understanding of the underlying feelings and thoughts as well as experiences which can lead to symptoms. I feel that this approach combined with the relationship between therapist and client will lead to a deeper understanding and discovery of oneself and free a person to live a fuller, happy, and satisfying life free from the grip of an eating disorder, as well as depression and anxiety which often accompanies the eating disorder. I have extensive experience working with adult, young adult and adolescent women with eating disorders at the Renfrew Center of New York. I also have specific training working wit h children and adolescents.

I specialize in brain chemistry and nutrigenomics: how nutrition activates our genes. My work is centered around brain science due to the simple fact that our brain controls our body. Every imbalance - be it physically or mentally - is linked to specific neurotransmitters in our brain being out of whack. Neurotransmitters act like communicators to your body and are built up by specific amino acids and cofactor nutrients. Once you understand how your eating changes your brain, you can prevent genetic disposition from becoming genetic determination. It all starts in the brain. Simple, really. Eating right for you depends on how your brain is wired - that is why people respond differently to the same diet. You cannot cure yourself with medication, simply because it does not build up your brain, but only manages the symptoms. Forget about WILLPOWER - it's all about BRAINPOWER!

Treatment Model: Dr. Stein offers a multidisciplinary approach to treating eating disorders, which considers the physiological, emotional, cognitive, and social factors that play a role in the eating disorder beginning and continuing. Using a combination of cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, systems, nutritional, and eastern philosophy approaches, we work closely with patients to discover the underlying causes and functions of the disorder, as well as the specific risk factors, triggers and reinforcers that keep the disorder going. Dr. Stein develops an individually-based plan to help patients learn to slow down the behavior, become more conscious of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in the moment, and learn more positive and effective ways to cope with them. She also integrates concepts from eastern philosophy to help develop a sense of mindfulness and pleasure in everyday living, as well as to explore sources of passion and meaning in one's life.

Dr. Stein treats Anorexia and Bulimia; males and females, adolescents and adults. She also works with Compulsive Exercisers, Food Addiction, Binge Eating Disorder, Obesity, Compulsive Overeating, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD).

Treatment Philosophy: My center's treatment approach provides education, support, and practical feedback to help patients understand and resolve long-standing behavior patterns, habits and coping skills that have simply become too emotionally and physically expensive. In part by becoming more sensitive and compassionate with one self, patients can learn to identify new ways of coping without also negatively affecting their bodies and/or important relationships.  I prefer a team approach utilizing nutrition, psychiatry, family education and peer group support when possible.

I am also highly qualified to comprehensively assess the appropriate level of care one needs; not only because of my clinical experience in private practice, but also because of my prior role as the Director of the Renfrew Centers for Eating Disorders in NYC and NJ for 5 years. I remain on Renfrew's Advisory Board.

Treatment Model: My study of Family Systems Theory has been essential to my work as a therapist for families, and has also illuminated my practice with individuals and couples. The tool set of Family Therapy can be very powerful in an individual therapy context when dealing with issues such as eating disorders, anxiety/panic, and depression. And because our intimate or spousal relationships can often be the screen on which we project our inherited difficulties, the family therapy model can also be a great resource for couples seeking a relationship of balance and longevity.

Treatment Model: Eating disorders are greedy illnesses. Left untreated, they will take everything they can, silencing the sufferer's authentic voice with symptoms of starving, binging, purging, and over-exercising. They become all-consuming and all-encompassing, leaving no space for anything nor anyone else. As a psychodynamic therapist with both personal experience and professional expertise with eating disorders, I know that individuals suffering from anorexia or bulimia may have similar symptoms, yet the underlying causality is unique to each individual. Paying careful attention to this, I customize treatment for each client according to her/his needs and goals. This may include: collaboration with physicians and nutritionists and family therapy. Drawing upon my own struggle with an eating disorder, I work with the client to foster a mutual sense of authenticity, empathy, and trust. I help the sufferer to draw upon her/his own courage, tenacity, resilience, and hope, so that she/he can disempower the eating disorder and connect to her/his own voice. This will ultimately be more fulfilling and meaningful than the chains of the illness.

Eating disorders are as lonely as they are painful. They can affect every aspect of your life - family, love life, work, school and even your spiritual beliefs. But you don't have to solve these problems on your own. I have been helping people with eating disorders for over 25 years. My work is called relational psychotherapy; while I respect cognitive-behavioral approaches, I am not a cognitive-behaviorist. The experience of being listened to and deeply understood feels like a gift that will restore your own natural ability to grow.

Fran Weiss - Founder of The Body Image Transformation Experience™   B.I.T.E.: www.FranWeiss.com (see www.weightfocus.com for complete biography and interview). Fran's private practice specializes in working with people who struggle with their weight, body image, and perception of self.  Her focus is disordered eating and the body image distortions connected with gaining and losing weight.  She has worked extensively in individual and group psychotherapy to help patients explore the emotional connections surrounding their ambivalence to losing weight and their potential underlying "secondary gains" to being overweight or perceiving themselves as "fat"-- for example, does it afford them a feeling of protection?  Is it their armor?  An adjunct to her private practice, B.I.T.E. Workshop I explores participants' eating experiences, self perception, and resistance to change and lays the groundwork for Workshop II, which integrates gentle movement therapy with body image and motivational work.

The B.I.T.E. Series - The Body Image Transformation Experience™

B.I.T.E.™ provides an intensive therapeutic experience that combines innovative group psychotherapy techniques with body-oriented therapy. B.I.T.E.™ is designed for those who struggle with weight regulation, weight loss, size, perception of self, and body image.
