our vision

Inspire an authentic connection between mind & body

 
our values

Cultivate Connection

The greatest predictor of positive therapeutic outcomes is the relationship we build with our clients in therapy, so our attention, curiosity, and energy are always directed towards cultivating genuine, trustworthy, and resilient relationships with clients.

 

Inspire Healing

No cookie-cutter approach here: We meet each and every client exactly where they are on their individual growth journey, which allows us to effectively co-create the most personalized therapeutic experience for improving their relationships with food, exercise, and body image.

 

Encourage Authenticity

We use evidence-based research and collaborative therapeutic approaches to support clients in eating disorder recovery, and finding what information and strategies fit best for them to develop lasting trust with themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally.
