Eating disorders rob the individual from living a healthy life filled with passion.  It is my goal to help men and women stay on the path of lifelong recovery and growth. My treatment approach helps individuals restore their self esteem, discover their personal mission, enhance their relationships and live their lives with love and laughter.

In addition to individual sessions, there are groups, tele-seminars and workshops that promote ongoing recovery and growth. Many of my clients are entrepreneurs, executives and professionals who have developed successful, full and rewarding professional and personal lives.

My INTENSIVE TREATMENT APPROACH is based on a 6-level approach to recovery:

LEVEL l: Moving out of denial into AWARENESS

LEVEL 2: Increasing SELF ESTEEM and SETTING BOUNDARIES

LEVEL 3: Establishing a STABLE FOUNDATION

LEVEL 4: Expanding OPPORTUNITIES and MANAGING STRESS

LEVEL 5: Continuing to GROW for MAXIMUM SUCCESS

LEVEL 6: Ongoing Consultation to MAXIMIZE SUCCESS & MINIMIZE STRESS

A strong focus of treatment is on developing skills that offer MAXIMUM GROWTH while MINIMIZING the possibility of relapse. It is my goal to help patients develop a strong, stable sense of self.
