Treatment Model: My philosophy of eating disorder treatment is based on the most recent scientific research suggesting that anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa are biologically-based mental illnesses which are triggered by dieting and perpetuated by malnutrition, with emotional stress as an aggravating factor. For adolescents with eating disorders, I use the Maudsley Model of Family-Based Treatment, a highly practical, empirically-supported treatment which enlists the entire family as a resource in supporting the patient’s recovery. For adults, I utilize evidence-based approaches including cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy.

Treatment Model:  Promoting Positive Change and Helping You To Re-Claim Your Personal Power Are The Primary Goals.  I use 4 key elements to help you overcome your obsessions with food and weight: 1) Learning how to live in the moment which includes anxiety reduction and positive action decision making skills; 2) Learning to know and love who you are without the eating disorder to define you;
3) Life-vision and values exploration to help you manifest your heart's true desires for recovery and other goals and 4) Cultivating an emotional nourishment plan that is the right alchemy of affirming thoughts, self-loving practices, supportive people and life enhancing activities that feeds you from the inside out. I am an "outside-the-box" therapist for the highly committed, intelligent and motivated individual who wants recovery!  I use a combination of experiential modalities such as somatic awareness, mindfulness training, expressive arts, rock climbing and mindful movement to support your long lasting recovery efforts. In addition, I utilize an Empowerment Approach that begins with a belief in the client's inherent abilities and strengths to affect positive, lasting change in their life.

Whether you struggle with an eating disorder that is controlling your life or struggle with anxiety, depression, or perfectionism, I can help.  Choosing the right support is crucial to your success. An individualized healing plan that uses experiential exercises and practical, real-world applications helps you to start feeling better sooner.  I run a private practice committed to your growth, safety and confidentiality while providing expertise, compassion and a warm, nurturing atmosphere. Recovery from disordered eating is challenging at best and my belief is that if you could have already dealt with your eating disorder, you would have. That said, recovery requires on-going treatment, support, skillful means and a compassionate support system. I invite you to visit my website to get to know me better and/or call or email me to set up a free 30-minute, in-person or phone consultation. The best way to choose your therapist starts with getting a feel for them and their experience. What could you gain by just making that first contact? I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Treatment Model: In addition to using my years of training and techniques, I believe the most useful tool is the Client's strengths. I believe in forming a collaborative partnership with my Client to develop a treatment plan best suited for the Client. By capitalizing on the Client's strengths and willingness to recover, recovery will not only be obtainable it will be sustainable even long after therapy has ended. I have worked with many clients who have succeeded in recovering from ED.

We are a free-standing, one campus treatment facility that provides highly structured treatment programs based on a holistic approach and the 12 Step model. Programs available for men and women include: Residential, Partial/Day, and Intensive Outpatient treatment. Aftercare is offered to our alumni free of charge.

In 1989, Turning Point of Tampa developed what is now a nationally recognized Eating Disorder Program for Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Binge Eating Disorder. Our treatment approach is based on a caring and effective 12-step program designed to explore personal issues in a supportive environment. Our trained therapists and nutritionists facilitate group treatments to address body image, life skills, nutrition, disease concept, and menu planning for male and female clients dealing with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. Our clients meet one on one with his or her therapist to develop individualized treatment plans and for ongoing individual therapy. The client will also work with the psychiatrist and each client meets weekly with the nutritionist to develop and monitor an individually tailored food plan to help them establish abstinence and ongoing recovery.
