Treatment Model: I usually begin with a combination of psychoeducation and cognitive behavioral and affect regulation techniques to help clients gain some tools for better understanding and managing their eating disorders.  I also often work with clients to develop a treatment team of professionals which may include medical doctors, registered dieticians, and psychiatrists as needed. I then use a variety of treatment models depending on the clients needs, psychodynamic, feminist, relational, etc. to help the client to better understand what is underneath their eating disorder symptoms and therefore how best to free themselves from them.

I have a deep belief in the power of ones ability to heal emotionally, physically, and spiritually in connection with one another. In the context of a supportive environment in which one can face what has seemed unfaceable and feel what has seemed too painful or frightening to feel, true healing can emerge. I have great respect for my clients and consider it a great honor to accompany them in their healing.

The Comprehensive Eating Disorders Program at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford is a national and international leader in the treatment of children and adolescents with eating disorders that include Anorexia nervosa, Bulimia nervosa and Eating disorders not otherwise specified (EDNOS), including the female athlete triad. The program, which has been treating patients successfully for more than 30 years, is directed jointly by the Stanford University School of Medicine’s Adolescent Medicine Division and Division of child and Adolescent Psychiatry. As a major research center for the care of patients with a full spectrum of eating disorders, they provide the most advanced and most effective medical, psychological and psychiatric treatments available with the same emphasis on family-centered care that is the hallmark of treatment at Packard Children’s Hospital. Packard Children’s physicians were pioneers in bringing the successful family-based treatment known as the Maudsley Approach to the United States, authoring treatment models and leading research that demonstrates evidence of its effectiveness. Expertise in this area makes Packard Children’s an ideal resource for families looking for a center that will support their efforts to address their child’s eating disorder. Patients access care through the program's eating disorders outpatient clinic, or if they are in need of medical stabilization, through the inpatient Comprehensive Care Program. The combination of both inpatient and outpatient services in one program makes the Packard Children’s Hospital eating disorders program truly unique.

Treatment Model: My therapeutic approach is primarily Cognitive Behavioral, however I often integrate techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Interpersonal Psychotherapy. Therapy is tailored to a client's needs and goals, and is provided in a supportive and collaborative environment. Therapy is a time to explore a client's presenting concerns and for a therapist & client to work together towards the client's goals. Integrating empirically supported treatments, empathy, collaboration, validation, and teaching skills for change facilitate reaching the quality of life a client is seeking.
