our services
Initial Assessment
The initial assessment is designed to be a comprehensive experience, entirely centered around your individual needs. During this 60-minute session, we will prioritize getting to know you on a personal level. We will begin by carefully reviewing the information in your intake paperwork, allowing us to better understand your health history and past/present relationship with food, body image, and movement. Together, we will engage in a thoughtful conversation about the specific support you require, outline short- and long-term goals, and what you hope to achieve through our collaboration.
Follow-up Sessions
Follow-up sessions are an ongoing opportunity for growth and healing, where we work collaboratively to empower you on your journey to a more balanced relationship with food and your body. In our work together, we may explore: ways of nourishing yourself without restriction, meal planning that is flexible and balanced, reconnecting with your body's hunger and fullness cues, recognizing and challenging diet culture beliefs, providing evidence-based nutrition education, learning effective coping strategies, exploring joyful movement, and fostering a positive body image and self-acceptance.
Adolescent Eating Disorder Treatment/Parent Sessions
We believe in providing comprehensive care to our adolescent clients, ages 10-18. To ensure the best outcomes for their health and well-being, occasional “parent sessions” may be necessary as part of the treatment process. Parents may also request to meet with the treatment team in order to discuss their child’s treatment plan and progress. We value the collaboration between parents and other treatment team members in supporting the nutritional needs of our younger clients, and these additional sessions are an essential component of our holistic approach to care.
Meal Support
We understand that mealtimes in eating disorder recovery can be challenging. Our meal support services are a vital component of your eating disorder recovery journey, designed to help you rebuild a positive and nourishing connection with food and ultimately, with yourself. This service offers real-time support in a safe and non-judgmental environment where we can help navigate the challenges that can arise during meals, providing emotional support and encouragement. We can equip you with effective coping strategies to manage anxiety, guilt, or discomfort that may arise around meal times, helping you to improve your relationship with eating.
