Living with an eating disorder can feel like carrying a secret that never lets you rest. Maybe you're exhausted by constantly thinking about food. Maybe every meal feels like a negotiation, or you find yourself promising you'll "do better tomorrow." You might look like you're functioning on the outside while privately feeling consumed by guilt, anxiety, or shame around eating. If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone—and you don't have to keep struggling by yourself.

If you live with anxiety, even simple daily tasks can feel overwhelming. Your mind may race, your body may stay tense, and you might feel constantly on edge without knowing why. If this sounds familiar, working with an anxiety therapist can help you find steadier ground.

Living with depression can feel heavy and lonely, even when you’re surrounded by people who care about you. If you’re finding it hard to get through the day, losing interest in things you once enjoyed, or feeling stuck in a fog you can’t shake, therapy for depression can help. I offer virtual sessions for clients in Atlanta, Georgia, and throughout the state, so you can talk freely from the comfort of your home.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT is a short-term, problem-focused form of behavioral treatment that helps people see the difference between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings, and free them from unhelpful patterns of behavior. CBT is grounded in the belief that it is a person’s perception of events – rather than the events themselves – that determines how he or she will feel and act in response. Most people with clearly defined behavioral and emotional concerns tend to reap the benefits of CBT. With CBT, you’ll be able to adjust the thoughts that directly influence your emotions and behavior.

When a loved one is struggling with an eating disorder, it's common to feel overwhelmed, helpless, lonely, and afraid. There are many effective treatment options for eating disorders, including outpatient therapy, intensive hospitalization programs (IOP), partial hospitalization programs (PHP) (or day programs), residential treatment, and inpatient care. Navigating which level of care and specific program is best for your loved one can feel daunting. 

I provide psychological evaluations for candidates seeking bariatric surgery. This type of surgery requires a significant commitment, and it is essential to identify ways to maximize your success after surgery. You may need to address disordered eating habits, identify social supports, and develop additional strategies for managing stress.
