Eating Disorder Therapy in Denver
Struggling with food, body image, or weight can feel overwhelming. Eating disorders often come with shame, secrecy, and the constant mental battle of what to eat, when to eat, or whether you “deserve” to eat at all. For some, mealtimes are filled with anxiety or conflict; for others, avoidance or bingeing becomes a way to cope with stress and emotions.
If you’re reading this, you or someone you love may be experiencing the heavy toll of an eating disorder. It’s important to know: recovery is possible, and you don’t have to walk this road alone.
Healing Your Relationship with Food and Body
Eating disorders are painful—not just for individuals, but for families too. Recovery is possible with the right support. I specialize in treating eating disorders through evidence-based therapy, parent involvement, and animal-assisted care.
My Approach
At Therapy With A Dog, I specialize in treating eating disorders with an integrative, evidence-based approach. My work focuses not only on food behaviors but also on the emotions, relationships, and experiences driving them.
FBT (Family-Based Treatment): For children and teens, I partner with families to empower parents as active participants in recovery.
EFFT (Emotion-Focused Family Therapy): Strengthens parent-child communication, helping families navigate difficult emotions and reduce shame.
CBT-AR & ACT: Target the rigid thoughts and avoidance behaviors common in eating disorders, while teaching new ways to relate to food and body image.
ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention): Gently supports clients in facing food fears and rituals in a structured, safe way.
Whether you’re experiencing Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder, ARFID, or body image distress, therapy provides tools for lasting change.
