Eating disorder recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all, and neither is our nutrition support that gets you there.
Compassionate nutrition counseling for eating disorder recovery — in a space where you’ll never be judged for where you’re starting from. Covered by insurance.
If you’re reading this, you might be in a place where asking for help feels enormous.
Where you’re not sure you deserve to feel better. Where you’ve had experiences with providers who didn’t understand, or who made things worse, or who said things they couldn’t take back.
We want you to know: you’re safe here.
Our team includes registered dietitian nutritionists who specialize in eating disorder recovery—not as an afterthought, but as an area of clinical expertise and deep personal commitment. We understand the complexity of eating disorders and we understand that recovery is not linear. Nutrition counseling in this context looks very different, and we are trained to provide the kind of care that actually helps.
Nutrition work in outpatient eating disorder recovery is not about meal plans and calorie counts.
It’s about rebuilding a relationship with food and your body that is grounded in safety, trust, and compassion—at a pace that honors where you are in your recovery.
Our eating disorder dietitians use a weight-inclusive, non-diet approach that is consistent with evidence-based eating disorder treatment frameworks.
We focus on:
- Rebuilding food variety, flexibility, and adequacy
- Challenging and gradually shifting rigid food rules and beliefs
- Addressing fear foods with support and at a pace that feels manageable
- Restoring physical health, including addressing the medical and nutritional consequences of eating disorder behaviors
- Supporting interoceptive awareness—reconnecting with internal hunger and fullness cues
- Developing a sustainable, peaceful relationship with eating that supports your life
We understand that food is never just food when you’re in recovery. It’s connected to identity, control, relationships, safety, and so much else. We hold all of that with you—not just the nutritional piece.
Eating Disorders We Work With
01
Anorexia Nervosa
Nutritional restoration in anorexia nervosa requires specialized expertise and a careful, medically informed approach. Our eating disorder dietitians are experienced in supporting clients through the physical and psychological complexity of refeeding and nutritional rehabilitation in coordination with the broader treatment team.
02
Bulimia Nervosa
Nutrition counseling for bulimia nervosa focuses on building eating regularity and structure, reducing dietary restriction that drives binge-purge cycles, addressing the nutritional deficiencies and physical health consequences of purging behaviors, and developing a more flexible, less rule-driven relationship with food.
03
Binge Eating Disorder
Binge eating disorder is the most common eating disorders, and one of the most misunderstood. Our approach addresses the restrictive eating and diet culture messaging that often drives binge episodes, supports the development of regular, adequate eating patterns, and works toward a relationship with food that doesn’t involve punishment.
04
ARFID
ARFID involves significant food avoidance or restriction that isn’t driven by body image concerns, but can still result in serious nutritional consequences and significant quality of life impairment. We work with children, adolescents, and adults with ARFID using gradual, individualized food exposure approaches that respect sensitivities while slowly expanding food variety and adequacy.
05
Orthorexia
Orthorexia—an obsessive focus on eating “correctly” or “cleanly”—is increasingly common in a culture saturated with wellness messaging. We help clients disentangle health-promoting intentions from disordered rigidity and rebuild a relationship with food that is nourishing rather than anxiety-driven.
06
OSFED
Many people struggle with disordered eating that doesn’t fit neatly into a diagnostic category, but is still significantly affecting their quality of life. You don’t need a formal diagnosis to receive specialized support.
Our eating disorder team believes in collaborative, integrated care.
For most clients in eating disorder recovery, we recommend working with a treatment team that includes a therapist and a physician alongside our nutrition counseling—and we’re experienced in communicating and coordinating with other providers to ensure continuity of care.
For clients who may need a brief introductory conversation before committing to a first appointment, we can arrange a short 15-minute call with a provider. Please reach out to our office to ask about this option.
We also offer family nutrition support for parents and caregivers of children and adolescents in eating disorder recovery, because the family context is a critical part of pediatric eating disorder treatment.
You deserve eating disorder care that meets you where you are.
Recovery is possible. And it’s more possible with the right support. Book an appointment with one of our eating disorder registered dietitian nutritionists—or call our office if you’d like to talk through whether we’re the right fit before you book.
FAQ
